Merchants/ Capital ships manouvre like sport cars

I like the game, and I play mostly 68's campaign, trying to use Mk16 (should be Mk14 by the way, as there was still a lot of inventory left from WWII). So the issue is that ships capital ships/ merchants are always changing speed and course, even when not alerted. this is very unrealistic, as it would be impossible for a crew to be changing speed and course 24h a day during a cruise. Correct behaviour would be zig zaging at relatively long intervals.

Also, ships (again capital ships and merchants are the issue, not so DDs) are way to manouverable, it takes them seconds to do a 180 degree turn, so it is really unrealistically challenging to use Mk16. People end just packing Mk37s only when in real life unguided torpedoes were still very useful (e.g. Belgrano sinking during Falklands)

Any chance there is a MOD that corrects this?
