Yup. Because they're such a gigantic PITA, they get used a lot less than they should be. They'd be perfect for after-successful-mission gloating session or in the aftermath of 60 seconds of stark terror before death..

For the masts.. It's kinda like the sub accelerating too much. Some people felt it's the end of the world, but it really didn't affect the tactics you'd generally employ very much.

Should the masts be picked up by radar? Absolutely! Should they be difficult to pick up and only at shortish detection ranges? Absolutely!

So.. You shouldn't be able to monitor contacts on ESM/Visual with impunity, but with realistic detection ranges etc it shouldn't really change much.

Of course if you SEE helo on scope, you're probably screwed emitter distance inverse square -wise.
