Yeah. Therefore, its completely suicidal to attack a convoy guarded by 12,13 or 14 destroyers. In fact, its not only suicidal, its useless too cause there are very small chances to hit ANY-thing. On the other hand, there are some convoys guarded only by 6 or 7 destroyers. These are an opportunity.

P.S. I once got this message while on patrol (1944): Constant aircraft. CENTRAL ATLANTIC WORSE THAN BAY OF BISCAY.
