Naval destroyers were a menace to submarines during WW 2 and difficult ships to sink. The speed of a destroyer and its ability to maneuver quickly in open water made them difficult targets for submarines. And their primary weapon of depth charges had the ability to sink any submarine. The use of sonar by destroyers also allowed them to track enemy submarines.
