When you ID a ship it's hull appears in the torpedo depth chart. I tried once, in calm waters to against a Liberty Cargo. I was 1m below it's keel. The torpedo just kept going, didn't blow up or anything. I made sure the magnetic trigger was active.

More proof this HP only thing is bunk, here's the Ark Royal with FIVE torpedoes in her (my Torp guy has all but one of the passive damage skills already). How this doesn't count as a kill is beyond me, but pissed me off so much I nearly deleted my campaign.
