Active Sonar should hurt enemies and allies (if close enough) outside the sub

Sonar isn't just loud, it kills.

It doesn't hurt enemies iirc, but it does kill your crew

like others have said, mod for that. Thing is realims is nice but should always be second to gameplay. It would be realistic for submarines to implode when they get a hole the size of a truck punched into them and for the crew to instantly die. It would not make good gameplay tho.

Real world sonar is a weapon designed to find enemy sub before they lauch supercavity torps to sink your carrier group or launch ICBM with nukes on them so they use high powered transducer that can search for miles.

In game sonar are fish finder with range of 50-80m.

Edit: I think its fun to use high powered sonar in tutorial . Just imagine the game tell you to turn on sonar and what you find is abyss creature wrecking your sub because they are trying to sleep.
