...a Polish sub torpedoing German task force?

Baltic Operations, 1.09.2019, I spot Schleswig-Holstein training battleship with 2 destroyers. While looking at them through binoculars (still only stacks and superstructure visible over horizon), suddenly there's an explosion on one of the destroyers. I assumed they were duking it out with Polish destroyers that were supposed to be in area, but after approaching I haven't found any Polish DD.

What I did find was a hydro contact, fast sounding screw but apparently very slowly following German task force. Nothing was visible on surface in this direction though.
