Hi Yall:
Remember the American Kapitan knew the magnetic heading of the attacking re-supply U-boat before heading down in the conning tower. All he had to do was swing the nose of the U-571 to that reciprocal heading and shoot, hoping for a luck shot. U-571 didn't have enough electrical power but to submerge and basically spin on its axis.
Good Luck and Good Hunting,
Jerry Pope
