forget all of the stories of sub skippers closing a TF/convoy and firing at 1000 yards.
the classic tactics are the best tactics:get out in front. find a path below and around the escorts, come to periscope depth, fire your fish, go deep and get out Dodge ASAP.
if you intend to re-attack the remainder of the enemy force, escape 90 degrees from your attack bearing and then make your course the same as the enemy when you attacked. your attack will cause the formation to slow and mill around for some time so you could have time to not only evade but reload and get set up for Round 2.
if you just want to evade, make your course 90 degrees off from the enemy course. go deep. stay quiet. change course as often as you can. your life will depend on it.
good luck. and good hunting.
