The TA contacts seem to come from some bearing off of the sub, so I guess it's either at the end or the somewhere in the middle, probably the end since that is where the TA facing is calculated in the sonar station (why you can be going straight forever after a sharp turn and only see the TA start to come around very quickly at the end).

If it's at the end, then the longer TA lengths for the TB-23 and TB-29 (added courtesy of Periscope Depth's cable length mod in the LWAMI meta-mod v2.0 and higher) give the player an advantage in possible quick triangulation with the sphere or hull arrays for close contacts, although I wouldn't trust this result too much, just a quick heurtistic if you need it for a quick resolution or TMA solution check.
