Synchronized attacks are definatly possible. How best to go about doing this is a little tricky. You could launch torpidos at diferant speeds, i.e. the first torpido at slow speed and then wait x number of seconds and then fire a torpido at fast speed. The trick is geting that time, x, figured right. If you hit F6 you should be able to see at the end of the green trajectory line the time it will take the torpido to travle what ever distance you have put into the TDC. The diferance in the time between a fast and a slow torpido time would be the ammount of time you would have to wait between firing.

Alternitivly you could fire at targets in diferant colums of the convoy. If you shoot at a target in the colum furthest from you the torpido will take longer to get there than one shot at the nearest colum. Again you can find that time diferance with the TDC screen and adjust the timing of yor shots accordingly.

Those are the two best ways I know of geting the desired effect. With the convoy all travaling the same course and speed it should be fairly easy to get the time diferance calculated, just give your self a little extra time in your set up for the attack. If you were looking for an automated method I don't know of any.
