Sink a ship from RND group* and you get credit
move away from that zone and the game will spawn that first unit again
When you sink it second time = no credit as the game knows you have sunk it once already
Similary with convoys
Take out most of the escorts and then move out of rendering range
Move back into rendering range and viola all the escorts are back
Only this time you will usually not get credit for sinking them
At least thats how it was in SH3 and nothing I have seen so far seems different in SH4
Of course if the ships were hundreds of KM apart and in different directions its unlikely from the same group and you may just be unlucky with an SH* bug

I would have to double check my Nav Map. I did sink a Large Comp Frieghter in Bungo Straits a day or two early, but it was in a different section of it. If I remember correctly they were moving in opposite directions. I don't think I've seen a Med Old Tanker minus the one that didn't get recorded all patrol.
I never noticed the whole render range thing. I've run parallel to task forces and convoys just outside of visual range, but then again I almost never attack escorts.
