It sounds strange if you've never really thought about it before, but with a projectile (whether it's an rock or a torpedo) traveling on a constant speed and course, distance is not part of your firing solution. As weird as it may sound, your lead angle is exactly the same whether shooting at a target 50 feet away or 50 miles away, so long as the projectiles course/speed and target course/speed is unchanging. Diagram it out if you don't believe me  .
