However its not exact science is depthcharging they would guess your depth, so if you were at say... 500ft - 151.5m

Then, they would know that you are between 400 and 600 feet they would have an idea and a spread would be dropped from their lowest to highest estimate, it only took one or two depthcharges to either sink the sub, or force it to the surface.

Though, the maximum I believe depthcharges can go in SH3/GWX is 300m however the only sub capable of reaching and exceeding that is the VIIC/41 and 42. The XXI I am not sure about.

believe it or not i held a VIIC at 300m flat for 10 minutes of real playing time b4 having to come up, i swear it!
