although there are some modsets where, after a successful attack, a DD will appear to leave the scene but then stop dead (or move very, very slowly) such that you may not get a detection via hydrophone. the old Enemy Below trick. when this happens, if you can detect that behaviour, and if you have a torpedo remaining and if you really want to sink a DD, you can move silently into range, rise quietly to PD, whack him with a shot.

lots of conditions for that, though.
I find myself trying to take out the escorts first, then I can really go to town with no worries(well little worries I'm in the years now that the merchants are pretty much all armed... Lately though there's usually 6 escorts in the Atlantic fights so it gets pretty hairy with lots of close up dead on bow shots. I've found nailing corvettes with the 10cm gun very effective in fog and rain. OM Darkwaters is by far my favorite mod.
