Periscope not detectable by radar?

According to you guys nuke sub life expectancy in modern naval warfare would be around 20 minutes

Masts detectable by radars, ultra efficient active sonars, then also reducing the effectiveness of counter measures seems to be popular in modding world too...

I am not saying it's not realistic, but it is my opinion nuke subs are quite screwed in DW as it is. It seems weird that most powerful nations built hundereds of multi mega zillion dollar subs, crewed by hunreders of their best sailors per sub if they are so easy to find, detect and destroy by equipment worth 5% their price, and crewed by 5% their complement as DW sometimes makes us believe.

In short, DW already has pretty strong anti-sub slant overall, in my humble opinion, so when asking for changes or mods to be made be careful what you wish for...
