1968 Sub vs Sub tips?

I tend to have my best luck hunting that Yankee is shallower water <1000ft. Normally, I got silent and nearly bottom out and let him pass me by, then creep into his baffles and hit him with 2 torpedoes. If his escorts sniff me out, I impose him between myself and them, and they usually do the job for me. Fairly often I can conserve my own torpedoes by playing mongoose to the enemy's torps, but it's a game I'll lose just less than half of the time.

The issue with the Yankee in 1968 is that it is using 1980's equipment. The sonar is too sensitive, and it has access to the SS-N-16 more than a decade before it was available.
