I think they should be increased, in proportion to the game's world limit of 25 km.
The enemy ship radar has a long range beyond visual, and just for game sake, the Uboats really could detect those strong signals from far away also. (though many captains thought the RD were putting off signals that the allies were picking up and never used them)
What happens in game if you are using TC to speed things up, the airplane especially with 15 km radar will pick you up and you are dead with a dozen airplanes on you. With a more functional decent range on the radar warning, it should alert you there are airplanes in the vicinity.
This may help people to get ready for an airstrike, and/or stop and dive to periscope.
This is very doable and I can give you a modified file Sensors.dat to test with. Tell me if you want to try it out. It may solve alot of problems with airplanes TC to hide faster.
The snorkel running under water being picked up so easy is still a problem I am trying to work around with a small nerf to either radar or visual parameters, without breaking the ability for DD and Ships to see your periscope sneaking in on them. It will work, just a heck alot of paly balance to get it just right without noticeable detriment to gameplay.
