Task forces can be really difficult to apprehend, they move much faster than convoys and unless I am almost right on top of them or directly in their path when I get a contact report for them I usually just let them go.

And often they do not "maintain course" in the same way a convoy does, so setting up an intercept based on their last known heading doesn't guarantee that you will find them even if you can get there fast enough.

A lot of the time they are making far more speed than you can match with your own boat and chasing them down is usually a futile endeavor. They will get where they're going and despawn before I ever get close enough to spot them.
