Seen it happen in SH3. I hit a passenger cargo with a couple of torps and it split in two and both halves remained afloat. I got the "She's going down" message so got the credit for the sinking even though it didn't sink as such. They remained afloat for the rest of the patrol, as occasionally I would pass back near the site where the red ship sunk icon was on the map and they were still there but both parts had drifted away from each other by some distance. I'll have to dig through my screen shots and if I have them will post them on this thread.
