In depending of your game realism.. if you're playing at 100% or usually you come back to your port without using Esc teleport.. I really suggest return and repair damages.

It can happen, what is your playing year ?

The main defence is dive as soon as possible upon air sighted is called. Anyway you was been unluckly for the extreme air dropped bombs accuracy!

..nothing.. if you take care of your stern! I mean, just hope a depth charge/aircraft attack or cannon shot doesn't damage the rest!

'41 is pretty early.. a weird attack! normally I can see them after '43-'44.

However, with 54% of realism you can always return to your base just hitting Esc, if you like it. Thus, even you will damaged entirely you can always come back. It would have been different if you were playing at 100%: in this case you must sail to your base because the magic Esc teleport is disabled.

Return to base. Type IX is slow to dive, especialy with destroyed dive planes. You probably have some hull damage, which reduces your max depth.

When I spot a plane, I crash dive and after I'm completely submerged, I change course for about 30 degrees.

Agreed....wait until you are below the surface before changing course, the AI cannot detect your course change from the air.

You do run the risk of an off target bomb hitting you though.

Return home! A limped predator is usually going to be the hunted prey himself
