When I played regular 1.5gold I never remember being brought under fire by targets I couldn't see, and I presumed the sub's low profile provided a spotting advantage. Yet in a brief bit I was able to play today it happened again, twice in 5 TMO/RSRD patrols (3 different subs).

What are the "standard" sighting ranges of escorts? Apparently surfacing 5.5nm from last known contact is not enough, even though i had no surface contact data at all. -I lived though, report to be filed when I put in.
