For ASDIC, the position and mounting of the base on these small, noisy boats probably resulted in a high level of self-noise (SN) even at medium speed (10 knots), hence our choice of a level equivalent to sea 6 (figure 10 from [RAD6712] ).

Although American shipyards have undoubtedly mastered BP, the US Navy's HMS, at more than 25 knots, can't avoid being confronted...
