The ships are subdivided in compartments with different damage values, some of them are "critical", the ones highlighted in the recon manual, when you play with easy settings (auto TDC) and you hit one of this compartments, the power of the torpedo is boosted, if you are playing with manual TDC then the chance of this hapening is randomized. check this thread for a better explanation.
