It's only realistic if you want your career to end now. Yes, they were ordered to stay surfaced and fight it out. And they died. Even the much-vaunted U-Flak was fairly easy prey to a small, fast target.
With guns.
Lots of guns.
And rockets.
If you're playing GWX you might want to re-think that plan.
