Thanks for the post. I will await your answer and try your tactics out the next time I play.
I want 200 meters (not always possible) of water under me to escape.
I make the approach at pero depth (harder to detect when near the surface). In daytime, the moment I see the lead escort and have him identified on the hydro plot, the scope comes down and stay down until attack. At night, I will make periodic scope observations, searching for escorts and targets.

I'm at the end of 1940 in my GWX career. When radar starts spotting scopes will have to be more careful at night.

Thanks for your kinds words--keep me posted on your experiences.
