I agree with what Rockin Robbins said. In RFB/RSRD I find 5 miles distant from the target is sufficient to stay out of sight.

You could fire blind based on the fact that the passive sonar gives you the first sound on any target at exactly +/- 10degrees from it's actual bearing. Just set the hydrophone at 10degrees ahead of where you want to fire, and wait for the green light to come on, then go shoot.
