DDs tend to have very shallow drafts. Combine this with US torpedos having a tendancy of running too deep at times and you'll end up missing.... a lot.
Magnetic might work out a bit better here, however if you're firing too close, the torpedo won't arm in time and you'll see it go right under the target without detonating.
I don't think the US torpedos had their arming distance reduced. The Germans did though.
What range are you trying to hit these DDs at?
