That's the truth isn't it - It is hard to avoid incoming fire you can't see on sonar approaching from behind when you are at flank speed.
The solution, don't draw fire. If playing without the 3D view you *must* dog-leg your shots, your *must* clear datum, you *must* carefully watch your sonar signature. Bugger any of these up and there is a good chance you will die.
Sometimes, against a force with some capable sub killer ships, you just have to accept that all you can reasonably hope to accomplish is dealing with your primary objective(s) and then get out of Dodge - while you still can.
