What year is it in game? By mid-late war the allies have established successful ASW. Not to mention the fact that Radar and Sonar has come into their own at this point, and were improveing.
The point is, steer clear of escorts! When attacking escorted convoys, get well ahead of them and wait. I wait deep, and listen to the approaching convoy with my hydrophones. As good as the escorts are, their sonar can cover only so much area. If you're caught inside this area, you're dead. Wait outside this zone until the escort passes. Once you are in his baffles, it is difficult for him to hear and detect you. Creep in, attack, and go deep and quiet!! That's the best advice I could give you. Believe me, I've been on the wrong end of the attack plenty of times! Good luck!
