I assume the Dutch sub is no longer on the active units roster?

If I remember correctly, sub vs sub was more prevalent mid/late war than ealy war.

I did find it interesting that the sub withdrew from that earlier combat AWAY from its home base and towards Saigon though. The ASW combat was in the hex SW of where she sank, so she retreated north east - AWAY from Singapore. Just like my TFs off Borneo retreated away from their bases.
