I fully agree about SH1.

There is a fix for this issue in SH3. It is very simple fix, and makes the world of difference in gameplay. I think you can use the MiniTweaker to fix it also.

Go into SH3/DATA/SIM

Change Visual Sensitivity from .01 to .02.

This makes contacts appear at the correct distance.

For instance

With a qualified compartment crew you will:

1. In good visibility watch crew will notice aircraft in time to dive
safely.

2. In poor visibility watch crew will notice aircraft in time to dive with damage, and you may possibly be kia'd.

3. In heavy fog if attacked by aircraft you are dead meat.

Also remember, just like in SH1, heavy fog is a killer. Many times in SH1 and Silent Service I came out of time compression only to be rammed by an IJN destroyer. So since about 1987 I never travel on the surface in heavy fog.
