I am not sure if I miss it, but knowing how old the last bearing to the target is would help me in my decision-making to fire a weapon. Often, I determine the general direction of movement for the vessels I am encountering so I offset my torpedo bearing several degrees to have a better chance with the torpedo detecting the target when it arrives in the target area.

This would come under my checking with the sonar guys as to the last time detected. In the game, that could just be another item in the contact report when I select that target.
