Why that can happen, it's very rare. I've never had it happen when my radar/sonar is working. However, it can happen early war, moreso with mods like TMO when you don't have radar. It also can be a problem if your air radar is damaged. If I have everything working, I'll run at high TC and it always falls back to 8x once a contact is made. For most you'll get a lag anyway when the enemy comes within your best contact zone before your crew or equipment gets a contact. This is when I come out of high TC and find use sonar to find the enemy.
Course how we define enemy territory is another question. I do slow down to 1500 or so near straits, ports, ect...but I ain't running around the pacific at low TC.
