Thx melnibonian,
But how do I get past an escort into the convoy if I have to keep at least 5 km away? And won't the merchants see me as well if I get too close? Cobalt wrote something about getting to a distance of 800 meters. Even in medium fog I would be in the detection range of the ships.
The other thing is noise. The DD's hydrophones can't detect me when I'm on the surface, and I strongly believe that hearing a uboat at 5 km distance is absolutely impossible on a DD that's making a lot of noise as well.
