I've noticed that task force escorts have radar detectors whereas convoy escorts don't. Also there are times on the surface when you are being fired upon before your lookouts have even spotted them, but with radar you can just go to periscope depth way out of visual range. Thing to watch out for is not noticing that it is raining and getting an enemy ship right on top of you while accelerating time in map view.
Are any mods recommended?

After you feel comfortable playing stock I would suggest giving FOTRSU a try. I think you will be pleasantly surprised. Just click on my sig picture to find the latest version.
BTW, Welcome to Subsim. Happy to have you with us.
