There are things that make Active Sonar not work all the time. Temperature layers in the water cause the sound to bounce off the layer and not show anything below. Water will bend sound and for active sonar it is bent once for the trip out and again for the trip back. Some of this is predictable, some not. It works Great when you are close, but get a ways away and neyt.

This does not mean that a fast torpedo is not a great weapon. It is, and it is even more menacing when one side has it and the other doesn't (Much like some weapons in SEIV) IF only one side had it it could be a war winner (again much like SEIV).
