The stock game had the weirdness that your sub could be attacked by dozens of aircraft, shoot down most of them and ultimately be overwhelmed by numbers. The reality was that one plane was enough to ruin a kaleun's career. Permanently. I think that the only way for modders to make them harder to shoot down was to make them stronger than they were in real life. It's either that or the u-boat ends up not fearing the planes at all. Unfortunately the game is far from perfect. It seems to be one or the other.
