I did four patrol with Rub 1.43 ...
Found/was reported on 4 convoys between Sep 39 and Mar 40.
My experience was very different from BladeHeart.
1st convoy - had the usual config of stock SH3, plus the auxiliary cruiser imbedded into the convoy columns. So, 3 destroyers at zero degrees(D), 120D and 150D, plus that cruiser.
2nd convoy - convoy NOT escorted at all in front of convoy, but two destroyers at back
3rd convoy - same as 1st (for DD escorts)
4th convoy - same as 1st (for DD escorts)
I did run into a naval task force of two (2) Nelson BBs escorted by some cruisers and destroyers.
The convoys I saw (all of them) were very heavy proportionally with C2s - but I think that was on purpose according to earlier threads during its development.
