    This is the best info I could find without saying you would have to talk to a recrutier.

    Here are the hearing requirements, obtained through examination with an audiometer:
    Any average loss of more than 30 decibels at 500, 1000 and 2000 cycles per second is disqualifying. Any single loss of more than 35 decibels is disqualifying.
    Any loss greater than 45 decibels at 3000 cycles per second is disqualifying.
    Any loss greater than 55 decibels at 4000 cycles per second is disqualifying.
    Use of or history of a hearing aid is disqualifying.
