[FIXED] Active sonar detections

Good evening,

Does anyone knows if a submarine should detect an active Sonar tx from a ship?
thinking the RF is a match.

It looks for me that in htis scenario it doesn't.

Seems something related to the geometry, I was able to capture both emissions from the ships

Blu3s,

Thank you for your time and answer.
My mistake, needs to be in both arcs.
I'll try a little more this evening.

Try set the depth of the submarine above the layer,

also I'm going to investigate the issue since the Active Sonar detects the sub below the layer, but the passive sonar of the sub is unable to hear the active sonar, I'm not an ASW expert but seems weird IMO.

Blu3s,

Thx. I got LF sonar and in the contact report, nice.
I'll have to try a bit more on when I get these contact. No ASW'er but I'll ask some mates about that.

So the 'acoustic intercept - active sonar warning' is intercepting her. On my sub that is an omni arc.
