SH1: The AI is unforgiving...

I was in a day submerged attack against a little convoy of 3 freighters with 2 destroyers in a picket formation...150 feet under, engines full stop.

The destroyer passes over me, I was facing it at the opposite course , so no angle for a sonar detection from him. Seconds later I went to 1/3 speed planing to go to periscope depth, I was about 2000 yards from the freighters. Then ... BAM...All ships change course, the destroyers heading towards me asap, the ping concert also starting immediately. Wow...

SHCE (1.3), Difficulty: 60% with Realistic Charts Off and Limited Visibility Off to watch destroyer tactics.

I'm really surprised that I got detected immediately, especially because I was in the destroyer's baffle with only 1/3 speed ahead.
