Was wondering if anyone else has developed their own tactics to deal with destroyers or anything else for that matter? When dealing with destroyers I approach them head on and wait till they are within 600 metres. Then I fire a torpedo at shallow depth (say 1.5 metres) and crash dive straight away so I go beneath them. Then straight up to periscope depth again. I then work out which way they are turning after my torpedo impact (if it does hit...) and turn the opposite. When she is lined up with my aft tube i let her have it for the second time. Has worked well for me several times when I have been detected ... Anyone else got any cool tips or tricks?
