Dive deep and move off a 1knot in Silent Running. Usually they'll stay in that one spot thinking you're still there. If you're at periscope depth and try to get them too, make sure you use a G7a set to it's highest speed and don't change it's depth. Then wait until they're within 600 meters. Fire and you should knock them off. But be warry of the others.... you've just stired up the hornests nest again.

It's funny,
When I got a carrier awhile back, that's what it was like. They really didn't move that aggressively, (I was not as near to the escorts on that one either) They probably couldn't detect me at all. So I was a bit cocky this time. I got very close, (inside the "circle of death") and then dove and turned 160degrees. They heard me before I could get deep enough.
On another BB they had me solid. I only hit the ship once, missed with the other two torpedoes. Everytime I came up to periscope depth to fire again, I saw those yellow circles on the map getting bigger and bigger and here they come. I never got to sink that one. The ship took a lot of damage but I got away.
Each of these was really fun in their own way, this one was special because I didn't get away Scott free, they made me really maneuver to escape.
Gotta' love this game...
