@Swimsalot : Keep in mind this behaviour seriously depends on the conditions. And its the same in the unmodded DW as well. I played the Akula training mission (by Beer) in DW 1.0, 1.01 and 1.03 (without Mods) and its always a bitch because of the conditions in the ops area.On the other hand I had missions (with and without mods) where the Sonar conditions have been most favourable and I could get hits on subs over a couple of miles distance.

On your example with the CVBG. Keep in mind the P-3 seldom if at all works totally alone. In a CVBG for example it has the help from the forward deployed submarine and the escorts of the CV. On other missions it might be SOSUS or other means of detection.

Now speaking on behalf of the modders, the mod has actually improved the usefulness of the buoy load and extended the capabilities.
