The HF is not reliable for much more than finding mines, but the engine does allow for HF detection by platforms with such arrays. I just created a quick mission in in the game to test the theory using an Akula II and the N. Korean Midget Sub. While the blip did not really show in the HF monitor at all, I pointed the boat and the scope in the general area and the engine placed an HF mark in the vicinity of the target, so it is conceivable that if someone is close enough, the HF can mark the player and trigger AI doctrine. I think OP's issue is a very rare case, however.
