So you answer your question nothing can stop a wolf pack style attack, but early dectection could drive them away but at end of the day, all any ship can do is employ it's counter measures and rely on crew training.
I am not now, nor have I ever been in a Navy, but I kind of see it like the sniper. All it takes is for one to be missed and take the shot. It may depending on how well it sneaks away be trading itself for the carrier but it also may get away. All the escorts are there to keep one from getting through but no one is infallible, and it only takes one.
