Default Green flares?

I was curious if the mods like Racerboys effects that run with GWX3 have flares for when an escort spots a submarine? I have seen red flares as a distress signal, starshells for lighting up an area, etc. Love it all. I have not been able to detect more of the signals in GWX3 that go beyond this.

I have come across yet another book that describes that it was common to have 2 or 3 green flares go off as an escort communication to be on alert at the moment a sub is sighted. I have also heard that aircraft would also drop a green flare over a positive sub contact.

I believe that mod offers whistles from ships upon spotting hostiles, but not green flares.
