Following a vessel by hiding in its baffles was a common submarine surveillance technique during the Cold War, which led to the tactic of "clearing the baffles" to detect followers. Other maneuvers relating to a submarine's baffles include the "Crazy Ivan", a hard turn to both clear the baffles and position the submarine to attack any followers, and "Angles and Dangles", a five-hour process of rapid direction and speed changes to ensure a submarine was not emitting any noise. The calculated baffles-clearing maneuvers undertaken by Soviet Yankee class ballistic missile submarines were dubbed "Yankee Doodles."

Following a vessel in its baffles is dangerous, because of the high risk of collision. Following the development of the towed-array sonar, which negates the baffles blind spot, such tactics have fallen out of use.
