Actually the torpedo thing being one hit one kill is realistic.
On the 3D model well DW is less about graphics it's more about gameplay of detecting, solution making and executing your prey. It's more about engaging your hidden enemy or attacking without visual data. Your enemy will be represented by mere electronic sound signal and frequency lines detected and processed by the onboard computer than 3D models. It's a completely different approach from the beautiful 3D world of Silent Hunter series. In fact you can disable the 3D part in game option and play without problem even in fact making it more realistic this way. The only way to look at 3D models that way would be to see them through periscope or surfaced bridge view within visual distance! The power of modern submarine is simply amazing it's a one hit one kill weapon for most things

Observe this video of a one hit kill with a Mk 48.

Yes you're right modern heavy weight torpedo is a one hit one kill weapon for most target.
Get DW it's much better and with LWAMI supermod or DWX from Russian community it's super duper cool if it's your thing!

A nuclear tipped torpedo might do that but a conventional Mk48 would not kill a supercarrier in a single hit both in RL and in game(Sub command or Dangerous Waters)
A single hit will probably sink it eventually though in real life and will likely disable it . . . . though it may not start to sink immediately. Russians for one have designed a super heavy weight torpedo that's able to sink a super carrier with a single hit. It's their 65-76 torpedo with double the warhead than most heavyweight torpedo! If that's not enough it can carry nuclear warhead too!
