Razark gave some good advice, it's the standard for evading and works well in deep water, because by hitting flank, you can usually outrun the charges.

Changing depth helps. A good tactic is say your at 500ft, you can blow tanks and rise up quick with flank speed, when you get to say 300 ft go back down. Usually charges will blow beneath you.

The danger is getting caught in shallow water and being attack by mean escorts such as the Type A-D's. They carry six Y guns and roll offs and you can hardly escape the pattern in shallow water. Sometimes when they make a run, I'll hit flank reverse with hard rudder, usually miss them as they drop forward.

Try to ID the escorts before you attack, so you know what you're dealing with.
