Are Japanese destoyers too good at detecting your sub??

Be very slow and deliberate about your decision-making.

Thanks RR. Yep, I've done same and in fact last night in the end the escorts were pinging away and dropping cans as I crept away until I got...blessed silence.

BTW, last night was the first I've experienced a k-gun attack, took me by surprise.
