Not that I know of. I'm not so sure the pinging is "too accurate".

i have a question related with destroyer hydrophone. using gwx. weather afects their detection by hydro? i bealive that yes but im not sure if the speed of destroyer also decrease detection capacity.

I'm not sure, but I believe that is the case. They do seem less accurate in rough weather.

yesterday i saw a destroyer, good weather, mybe 9000-10000, i go persicope depth. i saw later he goes 9-10 kt. in a moment i get flank, destroyer couldnt be nearest of 8000. Instactly start to zig zag and start the hunt. no deep water, type2, yah know im dead. How the hell it can detect me, its so noisy at 8000 the electric engine at flank?

It's not the electric motors that make the noise, it's the propellers. Making revolutions for 8 knots is very noisy indeed.

An yes, when start to serch by group, the scape become to be a really problem. I dont undestand why uboats dont get some mines as countermeasure, if they drop some mines posible the destroyer would blow in the air during the serch or the pinging path. Mybe was too dangerous add some mines over the boat.

There were u-boats dedicated to laying mines. The problem isn't the mines being dangerous, it's that they take up the space used by the torpedoes. You can have one or the other, but not both. More mines, less torpedoes. And the mine-laying equipment takes up even more space.
