More contact info on campaign map?

Anyone else feel like it would be useful to have more information or some partial intel on each of the contacts on the campaign map screen? If nothing else I feel like it would be helpful to highlight which contact your standing orders are for... especially after accidentally bumping into some other contact, battling it, then coming back out to the main map.

Yes, it would be useful! I attacked some times wrong contacts... I suspect actions of... spies???

Your idea gave me an idea about contact infos in Tactical Map and not just a symbol with a letter.
An ATC (Air Traffic Controller) picture displayed in Tactical Map with data for each contact from all onboard sensors providing basic data (Ship designation & class, heading, speed, depth, SOL)

ex. Los Angeles & Typhoon:

SSN LGLS
270*23
345*67%

SSBN TPHN
090*19
113*95%

OR, just traffic on the ELF about sightings.
