It is always with the large modern merchants, (the ones with the wide thick funnel)

This is something where the game is very inacurate. From what I have read, multiple torpedoes were required due to the failure and miss rate. One torpedo could in fact destroy a merchant.

Ever watched footage of an actual live shot. There is no way an un-armoured, or even armored ship could stand that and keep going at flank. The fish or eels pack a wallop. Silent hunter seems to calculate a large explosive charge putting a relatively tiny hole in the hull. There is something not right about that.
