What do you think?

Little confused at what I saw tonight. Used my save and started over after my attack for another chance at the Shoho. So I again chased the Port Moresby invasion force sinking 4 ships and chased it for 4 days over 300 miles. I lost it once and found it again. It had 3 DD's that were in formation when I first found it, but then just shadowed around it in different directions after one of my attacks. At one point they finally took off north and left the invasion force which still had several escorts. On sonar I picked up faint contacts not reported and headed that way. Lost sight of the 3 DD's, but had em on sonar. I finally got a contact, single, foggy, but was a minelayer headed my way fast, so I dived. Why evading it I got another contact which turned out to be a single Furataka CA. I couldn't attack it, but finally left the minelayer. I went off in the direction of the CA still faint on sonar. I dived to check and still had the group of DD's and the CA north.
Heading that way the CA changed directions and yet another contact, 3 Furataka's, Shoho, one DD. The first 3 DD's sort of joined in for a time.
They all finally got in formation and took off NNE 17kt's leaving in left field.
The DD's trailed behind, but went with them.
So back south I go.
So confused, 3 DD's left a formation they traveled with for 3 days, went north and joined the Shoho group. Also that one Furataka alone also joined the group.
Don't recall ever seeing this.
