  • Firstly, since it's useless against surfaced U-boats, stay above as long as you can and preferably make attacks on the surface at night (till radar appears.)
  • Secondly, if you have to be underwater, try to dive deeper.
  • Manoeuvre out of the beam of the escorts, keep your distance and get inside the ASW ship‘s baffles
  • Try to minimize your silhouette by keeping the aspect angle close to 0° or 180°.
yeah I was able to manage with keeping some distance and using 0 and 180 angles. this also helping when they are hunting with sonar so I managed to escape once.
