I've noticed this too. You can be within spitting distance of another sub that is clearly showing on HF sonar but you see nothing through the periscope or in the 3D window. It's something to do with how show truth affects the 3D view. If you turn show truth on it will appear in the 3D window exactly where the HF sonar says it is, turn it off and it disappears even if it's only 50 yards in front of you. Perhaps the 3D window (not the nav map) should be coded to show truth all the time to get round this (like SHIII). If you were to consider this a big cheat just don't use the 3D window to find enemy units, only use it to look at your sub or follow your torps which is what I use it for most of the time, or don't use it at all. The same thing happens in SC.
