One time when I was attacking a task force, the Luftwaffe just appeared out of nowhere and bombed the remains of the TF into hell. Every remaining ship the convoy just blew up at the same time and I saw German planes flying through the area at about mach 1.
It was the most spectacular timing, too. I'd just torp'd a battleship and the escorts were looking for me as I started a deep dive. I just happed to be looking at my handywork with the external cam when the Luftwaffe showed up. Most surprisingly, I say.
So, I think that ship might've been bombed out or run aground. It's possible it was bombed out right at the edge of the 20km physics model as you were entering or leaving.
