Is it better to employ escorted convoys or to form tons of ASW TFs and go looking for spotted subs in the main sea lanes? I do both. I use ships with an ASW of at least 2 for escorting and hunter killer groups with each ship having an ASW rating of at least 3. I also like to put at least one APD with the hunter killers. And when there is a sub that absolutely, positively must die, I use 5-6 APDs to hunt it down. Unfortunately, I need the APDs for fast transport on occasion so they aren't always available. Chez
