This tactic worked great in Silent Service.

I was also a big fan of surfacing within visual range of destroyers, and then launching torpedos down their throat as they closed the distance. I know that's gamey, but I was like 10 years old, so I figured the simulation was a perfect representation of reality and I didn't even know the meaning of "gamey."

Ah those were the days...

I never got it to work once! I always had to fight those damn boats, evasion never worked...
