I actually do it allot in convoy attacks early in the war.
I put the sub into the meaty part of the convoy, and cruise right down in between the rows of oilers and if im lucky major surface combatants.
Probably not the most historic way to play, but its very very effective as you get maximun exposure to the convoy heavies.
Especially if you have a crew that can sling torps into the tubes fast. You can rip the heart out of a convoy in one pass.
Its also nice if your doing keel shots as the angle doesnt affect it as much as it would a side shot.
