If you keep you parascope up and you have the map contacts turned on you can use the parascope to get hydraphone contacts on the map to turn into "visual" contacts. Your hydraphones will hear your targets long befor you would be able to see them on the scope but there you have it.
It can be useful for figuring out a convoy's layout. For example i was attacking a convoy yesterday and was having a hard time finding the best target beacouse I only had three tubes loaded and one in my internal reserves. so I scaned the convoy and locked on to the boats I considerd targets and then checked the map to get their location and then ploted the course of the ship to figure out what row it was in and there for what what the best target. It has limited effective use but if you can get creative you can find uses for it.
