No worries i think, ill just get closer..then i get the awful you have been counter detected message. Wouldnt of minded but there is still no signal from the LA whatsoever.

SO what was i doing wrong? surely i would of heard him sooner?

Which Akula?
LW made the Akula II about even with the 688I in noise levels. The Gepard also has the Pelamida II array, which makes it a pretty even match. The Vepr, I think, will tend to be detected first.

The Akula I-Imp will likely be detected by the 688I first unless there is a large speed difference.

Knowing the SSP and sea state will also help. 5 miles is usually enough in this mod, except in very bad conditions.
