Engaging while submerged???

Why are you trying to shoot targets without the help of your periscope? Generally, that's a very tricky way of doing things as you have to be able to manually calculate the firing solution using just your passive sonar (hydrophones). It's much easier to use your periscope to gather the required data. If you are worried about being detected or caught, being an extra 10M underwater at the time of firing probably won't be a significant help.
