Attempting to "knuckle around" a convoy or a task force is a historical and tactical method. Speed is an issue as the task forces are clipping along very fast. So I usually will not chase them down. But if I get a radio that they are coming my way then I position myself accordingly. I stay below the thermal and and come to PD as soon as the first lead escort passes and usually can nail a BB with all six fish before I deploy decoys and split the scene. The AI seems to be better at detecting subs when a task force is being protected. So using the thermal layer is a must with silent running employed. Sinking a BB is great fun...
