#3 priority is Merchant ships they haven't any defensive capability and their speed is low so u can kiss them on surface without any problem!! (i suggest don't enemy helo is always pain in ass and nearby )

You have to read your mission orders carefully before you engage any targets. Sometimes it'll say "avoid contact with escorts" or "remain undetected by ASW forces". If that's the case, then really you shouldn't be going after the escorts at all, but the exact opposite. Avoid them, move away from them quietly, let them pass you then work up on your mission targets. I understand what you're saying about taking out the escorts first. This will usually leave you with just a few unarmed merchant ships to go after with much less danger to yourself....
.......BUT
.....you still need to be careful. I watched a YouTube clip yesterday and the guy was attacking a merchant that seemed to be ARMED and ready to shoot!!! Not a helpless target. Be careful and never assume anything!!
