Not so easy in real life, submarines are not humming birds, to quote the guys at NYGM Tonnage War. You cannot get ahead of a convoy, go to periscope depth and just hover there waiting for your prey to cross your sights. You have to keep the boat moving or it will not maintain depth, it will either go up or go down but it will not stay at a constant depth. The game will let you do this, but a real submarine could not.
