Lurker asked specific querstions for a reason. That information (date, location) would allow him to see which escort types were likely there, for example. What sensors they had (radar?).
I am not sure off hand, but what if the PD-depth boat was broached by a wave trough? Radar might then pick the boat up, particularly in stock.

Understood, and apologies to Lurker. There is no specific area,time, year, boat, or destroyer, that I have noticed. I will make a note next time I am in the situation and name names!! |
Ok how about this:
Grid 137E 32N USS Drum
127Nm south of Toyohama
July 1942
Detected by Mutsuki class destroyer at 1500 yards, 200 feet down and no engines running. But, was not on silent running. Only mod running is:
ASW 9.0 RSRDC_V350_1.4
Depth charges were damned accurate! But got away.
