I usually dont waste my torpedos on escorts unless its out of desperation, such as a down the throat shot.I dont attack them because in most cases(this is where you got lucky) they can speed up rapidly even after sitting still and avoid the torpedos, escort acceleration times are a bit unrealistic so you got lucky in that sense but he was no doubt listening for you.The exception is when I have Mark 18 wakeless torpedos, I fire, they never know they are coming, just sitting there after an attack and then boom, they are gone.Makes follow up attacks on convoy a bit easier later on.
