Sorry, I find them too vulnerable in the game.
Just experienced the very contrary:
A Shokaku, heavily listing to port and with flooding = 100%, required two more torps plus a mag explosion due to shell hit to eventually go down. So 50% is enough to sink a Gato, but 100% is not enough to sink a Shokaku. I'm afraid I do not really understand these percentages.
