I have many strategies.
4 for merchants, two for destroyers.
Merchants:
1. I catch up to them and sink them with guns.
2. I catch up and use torps and guns.
3. In small convoys I use torps to sink the escorts and surface sink them with guns and/or torps.
4. They have too many escorts and I use just torps from underwater.

Destroyers:
1. I intercept their path then submerge.
2. I pass them and get into their path.
