[TEC] Absurdly tough submarines

Is this a problem with the subs as AI, the subs in general, or does "docking" make them indestructible?

well this happens to me with enemy subs in harbors. i put 4 fish in one one time and it was all under but the scope and no kill. if the water is shallow enough you can throw the kitchen sink at em and they squat down or look as though they sunk but never register as sunk because conning tower or scope or whatever never goes under enough to trip the trigger. i think the game gives them better armor as well.
