The sub still has sonarA submarine, while trying to remain hidden or following another submarine, will NOT use active sonar.

Sounds like SINS(Ships Inertial Navigation System) was in error......Bottom sounding sonar should have been manned or at least put on auto and set to alarm....some splainin' to do by the navigator and chief quartermaster.

you cant ping active sonar all day, though, that would tell everyone where you were
They would be running on the charts for bearing

Active pinging into the base approach may be a no-no...
