Radar equipped escorts

[John Pancoast]

The standard procedure for such an escort upon getting a contact, was to run down it's bearing, guns blazing, and drop charges on the swirl if the u-boat was able to dive. More often than not, the u-boat was surprised.

After many campaigns/patrols in GWX and NYGM, I have yet to see an escort do that.
Even though they have radar, they're still relying on visual contact of the u-boat before they do any offensive actions.

Anyone else ?


p.s. more often than not, u-boats were also surprised by aircraft, even with a rwr.
Have not had that happen either. Thinking about reducing the rwr's ranges for that.
