Actually, with TDW hardcode fixes this is simulated quite good in SH5. Magnetic detonators will behave both as magnetic and impact pistols with failure percentage dropping as time passes...
Impact detonators will fail in case of impact with large angle during entire war though...
EDIT
We shouldn't forget that TDW patches also simulate a whole range of torpedoes "features" in order to eliminate mathematical certainty evident in previous SH games...
