Ive read a few books about the Uboot aces and their tactics.
It seems to me that the most sucessfull captains slipt pass the escort screen on the surface into the convoy lauching the attack from the inside.
Now the countermesaure from the escorts was to let the forward escorts run down the sides of the convoy in oposite direction of the convoy looking for submerged targets.
The "only" risk for the Uboat once inside the convoy was beeing detected by a merchant.
Now to my question Is it possible to preform an attack of this kind in GWX?

The publication "Grey wolf grey sea" is a masterpiece in the subject at hand.
