First, almost all boomers have just plain crappy sonar. I've gotten withing 5,000 yards of a Delta IV in a 688i without being detected. And at 15 knots, the TA is prettymuch blind, or deaf in this case.
It doesnt surprise me the delta IV in game doesnt have a TA hence why he cant hear you and if your both at 15 knots then there no hope he will hear you at all, infact you could march the philomonic orchestra churning out god save the queen on amplifyers and the thing still wont know your there.

688i would be seriously deaf at 15knots one of the TA might work but wont give good reads but tracking russian subs in DW is a piece of piss.
