AI strange escort behaviour

Here's what I think would help:

1. Datum - they should be updated (perhaps there's some bug preventing this ATM)
2. Helicopters - after detecting an incoming torpedo they should be immediately send to investigate the datum. (btw, in one TLAM mission I noticed that Bears and Mays behave like that, but helicopters stick to their regular search patterns)
3. Surface ships - I think it's safe to assume, that any captain knows the detection ranges of his sonar under the present conditions. So, I suggest that after they rush at max speed at the datum they should slow down as soon as it is within the detection range.

Notice that in all f those cases the datum might still be wrong. I'm not asking for AI that magically know your position. Instead with those behaviours implemented you will need to either clear the datum as soon as possible after the attack or present the enemy with false one (like clever usage of wire-guidance).
