And yet it seems, even with your engines off if a destroyer gets TOO close (and sods law one of them did come too close), they somehow instantly know you are there. That cannot be right surely, is it a flaw in the game?

Doesn't take a genious to work out what happend to the USS Seawolf in the shallows of Manila Harbour!!!
Looks like, basically, that he saw you, pure and simple. Submerged subs are visible from a short distance, even if submerged. TMO trims the graphics in such a manner that you can see that for yourself.
