I also think about a little variant of your technique: after you hide under the baffles and match course/speed with your cover ship, instead of navigating in this way for the next half and hour or so, slowly and steadly increse depth till near maximum depth while slowly decrese speed till silent running, eventualy going for all stop while listentning on hydrophone and waiting for the whole mess to go away...  |
That might work too. But my main object after the attack is to wait until the escorts stop looking for me. If you were to slowly sink down lower and wait, there is the possibility of them picking you up with a ping and echo.
