Cargo ships: One torpedo 'should' sink a Tramp Steamer and possibly a Small Tanker..... fuel onboard is the deciding factor for the Small Tankers, but usually 2 for the larger tankers will work. And 3 are usually need for the larger ships.

If you have 'duds' turned on in the Realism setting, any thing can happen. But that's the part of the sim that makes you feel like "You are Thare". The "Pucker Factor" of Realism as it was during WWII in the Atlantic.
