RFB (Real Fleet Boat) - I have limited experience with this one, but, I believe it strives to accurately model (performance, etc) US WW2 Fleet Boats.

TM (Trigger Maru) - this is Ducimus' mod and it tunes the AI a bit, reduces the number of contacts encountered, changes some of the buttons, etc. It makes the game a bit more challenging. You have to work a bit.

RSRDC (Run Silent Run Deep, the Campaign) - Lurker has re-written the mission files such that the pacific war battles and convoys are accurately re-created. There is a stand-alone version for stock 1.4, and versions for RFB and TM. This mod is a must have !

ROW (Reflections on the Water) - Eye candy mod by Leovampire. Water reflections, ship reflections, special effects, etc. Warning - once you run this and see how good it looks, you can't live without it.

TM and RFB are not compatible with one another.

I personally run all the following mods:
ROW
TM-1.7.4
RSRDC for TM-1.7.4
FooFighters Hi-Res Skins
