I've had it happen to me before, recently even closer than that. So close I had just assumed I was done for. Saved by the sheer power of the XXI thrusting forward.
At one time, while playing the XXI SP scenario, I actually took cover underneath a slow sinking escort carrier, so I could wait for the tubes to reload. Two escorts were waiting for me, front and aft respectively.
And yes I nailed the one in front. Knowing it would accelerate furiosly the moment my torp went active, I over-compensated for it.
All thanks to external cam, a luxury RL crews never had.
