I have tried to kill a warship at least 10 times now and every time this happens.

I am evading their asdic when they spot me and come after me so haven't been caught by them yet but I am wondering if this ability of their warships to spot torpedoes every time is realistic?

is this normal in TWOS mod? Itīs making me prone to leave warships alone and just stick to merchants.
I think that you are still "fresh" in TWoS and yes, warships can be killed and they wont spot your torpedoes every time. This depends of many factors, like time of the day, crew skill, sea state ect...
Also ships acceleration whit TWoS shouldn't be so obvious IF you have properly enabled the mod and TDW generic patcher (RPM inertia patches).

That been said, just like in real life, torpedo attack on destroyers will most of the time end without success due to your target speed, shallow draft, trained military watchmen ect...

Primary U-Boat targets were merchants and with a good reasons. You have discovered some of them...
