I once forgot to drop my SD antenna while submerged during a convoy attack. When i finally looked thru the scope i noticed machine gun fire from all the merchys. shortly after that, i was depth charged and sunk before i can give the command to dive.

If you have that much flooding, usually a compartment or two is usually flooded. Submerged, this will almost always cause a down angle towards the flooded compartment. Simply, if your bow is at a down angle, to increase speed forward will just take u down, instead you want to go in reverse speed to the angle. Just something to pay attention to!
