To Attack & Get Away With it For Noobs

- If you're about 90/100 meters doing 2 knots and a DD makes a DC run once it's passing over your sub, hit flank speed and order a 90º course with the dd, you clear the DCs for 10/15 meters, enough to avoid damage and gain depth, once you hear the first DC explode 2 knots again, you anounce your presence to the DD using their hydrophones, but the one making the attack couldn't hit you, two or three attack runs and you're near 180/200 meters then set a speed of 1 knot and try to sneak away. Once they get the hedgehogs it's another matter, as they fall much faster and you can't wait to hear the splashes, you've to order flank before the DD passes over you.

Hola amigo!
Your experiences are pretty close to what I have seen. The only difference in our tactics is that I don't use full rudder as 1.) It slows my escape. 2.) It creates a noise knuckle. I use 5-10 degrees rudder, zig-zagging. This subtle change in heading seems to throw off the escorts and they tend to drop their DCs in a slightly wrong position (every little bit helps) .
