You can surface and issue a contact report in such cases. Maybe some other German forces could get them!  |
Yea - when i'm outa eels I try to do that. Like - if I see a massive TF or convoy, and I'm ~10km or so away, I'll surface, spot them, then call it in, then dive and evade. With that much distance, I can safely clear the datum before the escorts arrive. I've never seen Axis air support in the Nord See though. In the med, it's so frequent I can count on it.
