I have survived submerged for 45 minutes once, but by the time I surfaced all the fuel was used up. Then I was sunk by enemy fire.
I know exactly what your problem is. You are playing the mission with an American submarine. If you read the "notes" in the thread, the mission was written to be played with a Japanese Fuso BB. You are putting yourself right in the middle of a Japanese Task Force, So you have Japanese DDs and BBs right on top of you. I'm not surprised you don't last very long.

@Carotio: Thanks Carotio, will keep that in mind if I write any more missions.
