You using just TMO? If so the best thing to do is GO DEEPER!!

Depth?
Speed?
Battle Stations?
Repair Crew on?
Rigged for silent running?
Relative bearing fom convoy and escorts and exit heading?
Leaking Fuel?
Rear fish?

I can't shake these DDs for snot and they have a seemingly unlimited supply of depth charges.

Silent running was on.. thermal layer was at about 130ft, I had silent running on, Battle stations active, I tried getting away various ways- but the way that ended up working was turning away immediately after launching torps and hauling butt away, surfacing when torps hit and landing a few 85lb shells on the destroyers to sink them.
