Hello,

The doctrine of attack is different in the case of a merchant convoy or task force.
Yes, the convoy will eventually cease its zigzags, one day ...
My advice is to make a dent in the ASW shield and then launch torpedoes very closely, about 600 or 700 meters. Keep solid rear tubes to protect against an destroyer counter attack. Never refuse to fight against a destroyer. 100 meters underwater, the commander is blind; not to periscope depth.

Good hunt.
