When use the same lowest torpedo depth setting (3.5 ft Approx.), and fire at a Medium Gun Boat. The detonate and sink the target.
We should be able Torpedo depth to zero so the torpedo runs along the surface or very close to the surface.
Anyone comments?

Indeed, the draft of those kinds of target makes it hard to torpedo them. Magnectic detionation should compensate, but it usually wont, not until... is it mid-43? Anyway, later in the war.
