I think you will find there is a LOT of tactical stuff that can help;

- for real, you have to avoid closing range on some enemies, they will hit you with active.

- use the layers

- try to get in the baffles, it does seem to be modeled in the AI

-if you are in less than 900 ft of water, you will struggle; you need room to move vertically to avoid incoming torps

- knuckles, noisemakers, and MOSS decoys are your friend when under attack

Yeah, the SSK's are nasty. Currently trying to manoeuvre into the baffles of a Whiskey. Problem is, I detected him close in and he's got company in the form of a Victor II... Nail biting stuff.

The AI capabilities and AI tactics is where I agree this game is a simulation.
