The first two single missions:

First mission: fired a decoy, enemy sub fell for it and launched a torpedo at it, moving towards it at the same time. I had gone deep and quiet but before I could move in for the kill he ran into his own torpedo.

Second mission: ran the decoy gambit again, manoeuvred into ambush position deep and silent, sank enemy sub with first torpedo. Second enemy ran bows first into the bottom and was eventually hit by my second torpedo after it circled round him for about 5 minutes. In the meantime the enemy sub dropped decoys which sank directly below it's stern (which was sticking up at an angle)!

Above an aircraft dropped a single sonobuoy and then flew round in circles. I was expecting a pattern.

So I hope these are a deliberate easy start and it gets tougher (and the AI smarter) from here on in. Maybe it's the normal difficulty level, will try elite tomorrow.
