Also, if when you encounter the enemy on the nav map at high speed, when you spawn, you'll more than likely be counter detected immediately. So always use right click on the nav map to slow down for your encounters. This is usually the way u get detected when you're all quiet.

You are never truly "all quiet" as others have pointed out. Also a sub is a big piece of metal. If you are pointed directly at or away from the enemy sub when it passes, your sub's physical profile is much less than if you allow the enemy to pass abreast of you.

Generally, if there is an enemy within 1000 yards, kill it as it will most likely see you every time and fire...

That explains a lot of why I am constantly detected at distance and then sunk when I'm rigged for ultra quiet.

Sometimes I am moving at high speed on the Nav Map and get surprised. When I go to enter the encounter, I start at 25k yards out. It may give them a direction but gives me the best chance....considering that I got caught speeding.

You can sneak up on them. I once simulated an intel gathering mission by
sneaking up on a Romeo. I was within half a boat length of him

Here's the video of it:

I sneaked up on this fella. Waited until he went over me then popped up and did an active snap shot up his behind. Job done.
