I don't get how you are being detected, esp at that range. I just tested a new patrol objective earlier, ran into large convoy* four columns five ships each with 7 escorts) October 1944. Slipped inside screen to center columns, sunk two tankers, crippled large merchant, which later went down, came under fire but didnt get hit, evaded. Chased through center of convoy by escort but outran him. Radar equipped DE closed in on me me, fired from guns at me from 4000 yards, I fired a MK 14 "down the throat" from stern tubes, when he saw the wakes, he turned to evade, bought me time to escape, he lost visual and radar contact, I disappeared into the night.

Even with enemy radar, can pull surface attacks off. Hopefully tactics write up will help you.

I've been got at 9,000 yards on a very dark night on the surface in the last release I played. It was mid-1943 so I presumed at the time that I got RADAR'd, but you seem to think that wouldn't have mattered.
