Is that Elco with Depth Charges Realistic? Will they use them? I think they won't use them without sensors, but they had none AFAIK. Maybe Simulate Guessing with a new very Poor hydrophone sensor?

They weren't meant to be used against submarines. They were to discourage destroyers from chasing them.
