The simple answer to your question is --- DUCK (hard turn and dive)! You submarine is NOT designed to attack planes, while those planes are designed to attack you.

However, if you want to fight, as I did in one of my careers this is what you need:
1. A conning tower with 3-4 flaks,
2. specialised flak crew (2-4 trained Warrant officers and Watch Officer)
3. flak guns with fast firing rate (320/min)
4. a good repairing team standing by.
5. A engine compartment with full efficency (to make fast turns)
6. Willingness to loss a few crews once in a while
7. enough H/I to last through the fight.

Even with all the aobve, NEVER fight if there are more than 3 planes.

During the career that I have all the above, I got a grand total of 7 planes... Many times a wounded plane (more than 20+) will excape back to base. My submarine obviously is in no position to chase down a plane, even a wounded one.

The conclusion is, DUCK!
