Ok, so for a destroyer its not enuff to stop the props for a short moment, it have to slow down as well......?!?
Yes, get out of there is my choice of action too, but i came across two huge liners that i wanted on my tonnage-sunk-list.
The two liners where protected by 4 destroyers.
When i got them on my radar i dived and listen. As they got closer i dived further down to 200 ft to get under the "thermal layer", i used my ping sonar some times to determine how far away.
4-6000 yrds i got up to periscope depth without using the props. The destroyers starts to ping me and i have to go back down to 200 ft and move a little bit out of the lane.
After 15-20 mins the two liners are right over me and passing whithout the destroyers finding me.
I wait for a few more mins, and go back up to periscope-depth.
Now i am in an angle from behind the liners, but the destroyers zig-zagging is working obviously, and i ending up using my torpedo loadout at them instead of the two heavy liners.....YES. it was TWO!!!!
How would anyone of you do this scenario?
