If the devs have modeled the sim on historic data , the japanese used to set the DC's at 100ft. It wasn't until later in the war that a US Congressman let it slip that the japanese navy were not have much success in hitting US subs as there DC's were set to low. Japanese thought that the US subs could not dive lower than 150ft, I will look out the piece again, but I am sure they didn't change there DC depth until 1943.
