Armistead, with what I've found out with the optical issues of the game I'll be the first to admit that SCAF does not correct all the issues it should.

It does correct the "mast height/reference height point" to a degree, but when I found out that the stadimeter is not centered on the different sub models (yep, there's a difference to each class), the corrected measurement could be off depending on "where" the target was positioned when I used the mission test for calculating the stadimeter range.

When I check ships for mast height measurements I usually would put maybe 8 -10 targets around a stationary sub; get a true range from using the auto target option for each ship; then use manual targeting and the stadimeter to give me the manual found range. I have a math formula for correcting the "mast height/reference height position" height measurement, then check the measurement again for accuracy (give or take up to 8 or so meters). Not until recently did I know the stadimeter was not "centered" on the sub to read a range equally around the sub, no matter what relative bearing it was on. This in turn, has made some of the SCAF corrections inaccurate depending on where the target was placed in my mission tests around the sub. If the ship was placed to the port or starboard positions then the corrected mast height is fairly accurate. If the target ship was to the bow or stern of the sub, my correction is inaccurate due to the games stadimeter "centering" problem.

Like I said, I'll be the first to admit it. That's why the "Optical Targeting Correction" mod will be more accurate than SCAF and I would consider SCAF to be obsolete when OTC is finally updated with the corrected mast heights; centering the stadimeter to each sub; correcting the Field of View of the periscopes and TBT/UZO; and correcting the different resolutions the game runs in to provide the same Field of View for all aspect ratio's.
