I've always equated their loss of speed with the fact they go to full rudder as they begin to zig.......I've had some turn away after one of my torps either missed or was a dud and they accelerated away.......but only a few have done this. Most just start to zig if you're detected, which slows them down....which makes them easier to hit if you're close. I'm sorry, I don't have an answer, but I feel your pain.
