Indeed they do.

I managed to sink Warspite (aka Nelson). 8 escorts on me immediately as I backed into the cove. I assumed I was dead (18 meters depth, no chance to bolt). They stayed on me 90 minutes or so, but other than some superficial damage, quickly repaired, U-47 is good to go.

I am pretty sure it is a game exploit... few depth charges dropped, and not a lot of movement. I did not have the external cam on, but the hydrophone hairs were mostly steady and I sure didn't feel pressed,

After about 90 minutes, they left.

My crew tells me they spotted Nelson again, on the high seas, on the way out, but I put a patch to my eye and saw nothing.
