So far, the escort has not reacted in any way to my presence. Ships keep exploding from my torpedoes but the escort just keeps plugging along ahead of hte convoy. No attempt to find me.
I see from the description of IRAI you have assigned escorts one of the following (poor, novice, competent, veteran, or elite). Is it possible or likely that this escort has been assigned a "poor" or "novice" rating and that's why he isn't coming after me?

A single escort leadig a convoy will not disband and leave the convoy. It will continue to lead but will call in reenforcements via other ships and planes. For it not to be firing on you it must not see you (either you are submerged or you are out of it's visual range)
