I havent seen a ship sink from flooding in SH5. Even with 3 torpedo holes in it. I waited 2 hrs (TC) and it just sat there. Didnt even list. 
So i fired the deck gun at it. One hit and it went boom, broke in half, and then sank.
Not realistic IMO. |
I've had similar experiences. In SH4 with Operation Monsun installed, it was all too frequent to mortally wound a ship, but it'd take hours to sink. I'm used to waiting around the area for 4-8 hours so the escorts are well out of range if I decide to use the deck gun to finish them off. In SH4 most would eventually sink on their own.
I've yet to see that happen to a single ship in SH5. I've tried various ways too. Keel shots. Rudder shots. Rudder + Bow shots. It seems like no matter what, flooding doesn't seem to occur on it's own in SH5.
It's like dud torpedos. I haven't seen any of those either.
