The torpedo is not a smart weapon. It does not distinguish between an enemy sub, or your own sub, or a friendly platform. It will go after whatever it finds on its personal sensors. In fire control, you are simply designating where the torpedo will start searching for a target.
You have to be careful around civilians, because the torpedo is hungry, and doesn't care what it eats. The only thing a torpedo cares about is that it gets a meal.
