Regarding that long thread linked to... a few pages in there is a mention of decoys and bubbles as noise. It's my understanding that a SH4 DC explosion doesn't mess up the sound detection at all, whereas in RL it did for quite a while.
Just thinking out loud:
What is it about a decoy that makes it a decoy? Could the decoy effect be added to DCs? DC blows, and in addition to explosion, it becomes a decoy for X minutes. A single one would get other escorts to drop on it, but any kind of group of DCs might really throw them for a loop.
