For sure i also do surface night attacks on convoys, it's a great thrill and it's nice to be able to run to safety on the surfaace at 14 knts instead of underwater at 2 knts and be ready for a second attack at dawn.
But IF I'm detected and i have a destroyer running at me I have always assumed it's better to dive. PErhaps I should try to outrun them
