Another, often overlooked thing if you want to play realistic:

Use G7e Torpedoes
The U Boats mostly used electric torpedoes, since it was believed that the disadvantages of slower speed and lower range are outweighed by the Torp not leaving a line of bubbles on the surface that points straight back to the sub.
I keep a few steam torps on board but try to use them only at nighttime.
Also, electrical torpedoes could not be stored in the external reserves, since they require constant maintenance. Therefore you should always load Steam torpedoes into those.

BTW, Bstanko, what UI Mod are you using?

Could you make a video on how to do a proper night time surface attack?
I do not know how to get the range to target with the UZO
