If your driving the XXI after sept-oct 44 you will get a rwr placed on top of the snorkle. This device will give you a contact range of 5-7km...more than enough to lower the snorkle and dive to 25-40 mters just in case an aircraft tries to drop something on you.

Without the rwr device you will have to travel with the snorkle raised and in real time with the external camera moving along with you so you will be able to hear aircraft when they are, unfortunately very near. When you hear aircraft, lower the snorkle quickly, set speed to standard and get down to 40-50 meters. They will, in most cases drop bombs/depth charges on your old position so moving away from from where you lowered the snorkle has to be done quickly.

Hope this helps.
