noob destroyers?

Hmm, I tried to sneak to scapa flow (20 march 1940)
I met couple of destroyers there. Hunt 1, V&W. They pinged me and tried to destroy with depth charges. Water depth was about 15m. I was running at periscope depth. I easily manouvered them and got just slight damage. I managed to escape (closer to scapa flow). I met second destroyer there. I also managed to escape.

I found they are very inacurate in droping depth charges. They was shooting at my periscope (so they knew where am I) and were unable to ram me (well.. one rammed me a bit but did little damage, I was turning 90 degrees at flank speed while he was trying to ram me from 180') or depth charge me. Weird.

I'm using rub 1.43
