as soon as you fire, you get the hell away from where you were, because the escorts will go down the bubble trail. If you are far away you can dive at a fast speed. That helps.

Thanks for this advice Toni! Yes, I will attack from long range next time, going in the convoy with so many escorts was asking for trouble.
