This is not that complicated.
Once the SOSUS people heard the bubble pop, it was ALL OVER but the search for debris.
No advantage other that saving fuel of searchers in letting the world know ALL that was known about the mishap.
Time? Exact Place?
At some higher level, buy-in was needed to release the information and in such a way as to minimally compromise the program.
Sound in the ocean really has 'carry'. And will reflect in such a way as to 'tunnel' when the sound is above or below what is called a THERMOCLINE. A sub can 'disappear' if they find a good band of COLD WATER and go beneath that level. The minimal sounds they DO make will not rise to the warmer, upper layer......
So when the submerisble imploded in what was basiclly near-frozen salt water? That impulse carried ALL across the Atlantic. Thousands of miles perhaps further.
All received sounds are TIME TAGGED to the microsecond and when multiple stations compare arrival times, a location of the origin of the sound can be arrived at within a very Small radius.
Too much is never enough
