Good News - its not a bug - per se. Somehow you have gotten damage to your forward torpedo room.
See the blue in the forward torpedo room? This means its totally flooded. Thats why your sub cant get the down angle off. I was playing last night and got DC'd hard and me after room flooded with bulkhead damage. Was set for periscope depth and had to bounce between ahead 2/3 and standard to keep between a thermal layer at around 165 and not wanting to go below about 220 - especially with a busted bulkhead! After 2 hours of dodging DD's while trying to keep above an expected crush, I finally got the bulkhead fixed and sneak away - but it took HOURS more to pump out the room.
Luckily - the damage came after my last torp was fired (a miss tho dangit) - so the USS Gar (Gar class - could you guess?) is on her way back to Pearl.
In your case - stay surfaced and make sure you have a damage control team working - no silent running - turn on DC - etc - and steam to wherever. In about 6-8 hours they may have it pumped out dry. Make sure there is no damage to any bulkheads that needs repairing - or else its just gonna fill up again.
Good Hunting!

PS - ya gotta love external camera - seeing a boat with a heck of an angle struggling to stay in control - either up or down angle.
