Now then, as I've just found, be extremely cautious when you see Luftwaffe, nevermind that you are on the same team.
Just sailing between Jutland peninsula and Norway, when I spotted Norweigean Small Merchant. Since the weather was good, I went flank with deck gun manned. Just as I was broadside with the merchant, some 20m close (minding their crisscrossing of course) I got an aircraft sighted. Since it was late Sept 1940, I was curious and it turned out to be two FW200s. Ok, no more attention on them. WRONG. They attacked the merchant without care that I was alongside it. Got a direct hit on my conning tower and went under in less than a minute.
At least it was a start of patrol, which is autosaved. Hope they at least got court-martialed.

Never place yourself between one of your surface units and an enemy vessel....the AI will see through you and fire regardless...the same applies for land masses 'magic radar'.
