ahead flank
order depth 140 meters
reaching 80 meters reduce speed to 1 knot,
chances are 50-50 DDs will never find you.
If DD drops on top of you, go to ahead flank. 10 degrees port or starboard rudder.
when DCs begin exploding, back to 1 knot.after 2-3 hours , the DD will have lost you.
Your batteries will still be at over 75%.

If only I was so confident

LOL, Jim. confident Kaleuns get killed quickly. I'm only confident that escorts will do the dirty on me.
