First of all, have you checked the accuracy of your TMA? If you set the map to "show Truth" (Ctrl-Shift-T I believe) then the map shows the actual position of the contact. It's sort of a cheat, but very valuable while learning TMA. If it is not showing the truth positions then the Contact postion is only as good as you have done your TMA, or as best as the Auto-TMA crew did. If your TMA efforts weren't accurate enough then the torpedo and TASM would be targeted to a non-existing target. It simply didn't find it and continues on.
The 3D window has no bearing on reality unless Show Truth is activated. If it's not Showing Truth then it could be a false Identification, false classification of friend/foe and/or incorrect location course and speed. It may not be true!
