I'm still playing in 1941, so no radar (or competent ASW on the part of the IJN DDs), and about the only tactic I've tried successfully thus far is the end-around, on a passenger liner. But I was wondering about other tactics like the day-periscope attack, night-surface attacks, and so on.
You can use every tactic you have read about.
