detection problems

First, ignore Morh's advice. It is useless.

Push your sub deeper still. Try not to go above two knots. Present only the smallest possible aspect ratio/cross section in relation to the escort's sensors. Try to head away from the escorts and the convoy at the same time as best you can. Don't leave your periscope up any longer than you must. Pop it up... gather your data... pop it down.

Get decoys as soon as they are available.

Keep your cool and be patient. Think like a hunter and be sneaky. If you are waiting to dive until after you are detected... they'll do their level best to sink you.

Don't get target fixation. If you don't have a good escape route or take risks to loose the eels... they'll find you. Instead, slink back and redeploy some miles ahead a few hours later.
