So I've been playing around with this more using a barely educated guess to set noise levels on all the torpedoes in the game.

With a 120 run speed and 130 enable speed on a Mk 37 enemy subs will still hear if a torpedo goes active and they will hear a passive torpedo with enough distance to go evasive with moderate success. They now seem to be oblivious to torpedoes enabling in passive in their baffles but that needs more testing.

Surface ships seem to pick up a Mk 37 in either mode, enabled or not, with plenty of time to evade.

Hostile torpedoes are more difficult to track before they enable but not by enough to matter.

Haven't messed with the MOSS yet, it runs at 230 dB all the time. I might set it to the Skipjack's 140 dB and see what happens. Technically the MOSS noise level should be the same as the launching boat but that would add a whole layer of needless complication if it could be achieved at all.
