I was in the middle of a NATO task force, where we were the bait. Our own Navy couldn’t find us. We sank every ship in the whole flotilla.
Finally they made us go through a 1 mile wide check point so they could sink US!
skimmers = targets
pure and simple.
Yikes

I was in the Surface Navy for 20 years and we never detected a submarine unless it wanted to be detected and that was almost always when they either went active with their sonar or they surfaced and were within visual range and a lookout spotted them or they lit off their radar and our Electronic Warfare people picked up that radar.
Hopefully our subs and ASW aircarft, what's left of them which isn't much, do a better job then the surface Navy.
