A few days ago a destroyer started to hunt me down after i increased my speed from 2 knots to maybe 4. Our distance was 3-4 km and i wanted to take a good position for a shot at 90°. I created a thread about that. So, i guess the system works. I use the GWX mod, version 3.0.

3-4 km it could have visibly spotted you. Thanks for the thread notice though; do you have a link to it ?
Fwiw, here's some subject info. from one of the creators of the NYGM mod.
"Aircraft don’t really use radar.
I believe from testing that actually no radar-fitted bomber uses its radar to locate the U-boat - the radar serves only to alert the U-boat in SH3. The scripted bomber flies unconcernedly on until it sees the U-boat visually - then it will attack. The land-based bomber however is generated just a short distance away from the U-boat, and is given the correct angle by the code to fly towards the U-boat. Only later does the aircraft see the U-boat lying across its path." From here.
