Is this weird???

I'm playing a career on v1.4 and RSRD at 46% realism. Its Feb. 1943, and I have yet to be depth charged. Its striking me as very strange. One escort or two not DCing me, that's fine maybe I was able to sneak under the thermal and get away. But I'm really not that good. So to test, I decided to attempt to infiltrate Tokyo harbor. I sailed up, and was detected by a destroyer. Pinging away, he knew exactly where I was, but when he would make attack runs, he attempted to ram me, but dropped no DC's. I find this very odd. I've been engaged when on the surface, but beneath it, not so much as a single DC.

I can't believe the thermal layer has THAT much effect on stealth.

Is this as weird as I think it is?
