Thanks nikbear! I do apply these things but after 3/4 attacks, I get kind of tired and feel its hopeless, must try harder.

Go deep. Go silent and pray they go away soon.

Don't evade destroyers. Just surface and engage with the deck gun.

I do it all the time.... of course I have to start a new career afterwards

It might not be authentic to real life tactics. But you can preset your TDC for a 000 or 180 bearing attack and come to periscope depth while the DD circles. Either go ahead full or emergency reverse to get at least 300m away from destroyer. Set speed of fish to 10kts, depth 2 meters, AOB 90 (starboard or port depends on which way he circles) Aim just slightly behind bow as he will speed up at last second. Might take a bit of practice but will save you 2 or 3 hours of evasion sometimes.

One other suggestion I forgot to include, this one will save your live. Get a BOLD decoy launcher as soon as they become available. Now in reference to what I stated above, launch a decoy just as he starts to make his DC run and then perform what I recommended afterward. Also don't stay at flank speed for too long, because once he reduces speed to begin another sweep he will hear your cavitation over the sound the decoy is making.

I hope this helps give you a higher chance of evading and surviving.
