Decoys work more often than not, with the 30 minute decoys I've seen several different escorts making multiple attack runs on the decoys.

When all else fails, down the throat shots at 500-700 yards usually work, provided you make sure you're at or near a zero gyro angle so the torpedo doesn't need to make a turn.

Thanks for the info - will concentrate on quiet and deep using the decoys and minimum aspect to the DD if things get dicey...

Have been surprised when I attempted down the throat shots and took out the DD.. fully expected to see the "JESTER'S DEAD" screen
