I like this a lot. I've long-since wished there was more for radio and navigator to do. Perhaps through approximate positions given via encrypted Enigma, and then (via a suitably reduced range hydrophone) the navigator plotting periodic hydrophone bearings as you describe.
There will be those not keen on (say) a 30 minute hunt to locate the convoy, or the nav/radio work required to do so, and I do not see it being something that players will want to do all the time. But it'd be nice to have the ability to switch on this sort of thing from time to time.
The game badly needs new challenges to help retain players who've mastered the normal roles and skills. This would be one that fit that role.
