Hello all

It is September 10, 1944, I am in the USS Balao, where the incident took place was around Hokkaido island in the Polar Circuit.
So, I am ordered to patrol in the desginated area off of Hokkaido Island and I am to sink 5,000 tons of enemy merchant shipping. I find a convoy with 1 escort and 3 ships, a tanker, a troopship, and a cargo ship. I sink the cargo ship, a Hasna Frieghter, and that gets me over my tonnage limit. I quickly dive to 350 feet and go silent, hoping to avoid the escort that will come sooner or later.
I use TC to see if it comes and then.... I die. No cause whatsoever. I had no damage, though I did have 45% hull damage, maybe that has something to do with it.

Anyways, is there a reason for dying randomly with no warning of any sort?
TIA

PS: If I were to transfer to lets say, Brisbane, would I loose my Balao class sub and get an S class or whatever instead? Same thing goes for transferring anywhere, would I loose my current sub type if I transferred to a diffrenent base?
