Anyway I was duking it out with the destroyer/escorts that come at you right off the bat, sunk two right away then two more came in. So I went deep 300 feet and slowed to 1/3 while I reloaded. Escorts lost me because using my F11/God'seye key I could see them both together depth charging way in the back ground. So fully loaded I decided to turn back to them come up to periscope depth and hopefully catch them both running crossbeam to me with a full load. Problem is my damn sub would not turn so I could head back to them. I swear I watched that orange arrow for two minutes looking back to the escorts and it never turned. I tried speeding up to see if I was going to slow to notice but nothing worked.
Has anybody had this happen? It's very frustrating because everything I have read says that a sub underwater can turn tighter than an escort on the surface.

yes.
the sub physics can cause it to turn very slowly when submerged at low speed. low speed would mean 3 kts or less. try 5-6 kts.
i found that the Gato is especially resistant to low speed turns..... especially when you to do a 180. don't know why but it does.
anyway, hope this help. good luck.
