525 for stealth, needed to allow subs and land stealth units to have different sounds and being able to split the detection would be nice also.

I think it would be worth them being in the misc fixes that aren't included by default in UMP but are in the dev pack since people may want to use the building with the urban areas RMG.

FA2 can place those buildings, but there are settings in its FAData.ini that prevent them showing up IIRC.
