Perry, Orion and helo missions are a lot easier to approach. And in many ways more "fun" or at least faster paced.

In subs you're easily overwhelmed in a contact rich environment, especially due to mirrored contacts from TA. Sorting out contacts in the akula NB screen soon starts feeling like work, not like fun.. Especially when you have 3-4 contacts overlapping due to the aperture size!

Other platforms can just use radar/visual and triangulation from multiple sonobuyous making dealing with a cluttered environment pretty easy.

And personally I've never been able to deal with OHP TA station so I just use autocrew.
