with this game you HAVE TO open the torpedo bay doors before firing or you will get mostly rudder hits and missing behind ships because of the delay factor. without opening the doors first, your point of aim average change shifts to the center of the last 1/4 of the ship so any change in course by the ship will almost make certain you miss completely.
also, unless you use a mod to fix it, a thing to keep in mind is ships have no damage zones for the bow so a direct bow shot does no damage in most cases unless its far enough back to damage the first gun implacement so think of hitting the bow keel as being a miss with no damage
