Ussually when it's 1/3 no silent running or ahead standard silent running, they make a bee-line straight for me. This time, they were just amped up looking around. Very interesting. I better have acoustic torpedoes when radar rolls around.
I would have done the end around as many Kaleuns would have had to in RL. If they found they were in a bad position they could not usually improve it by making enough noise to be detected. In GWX if you are not quiet you end up dead.
