Yep....without the "ship destroyed" message (or whatever the variant is) you will get no credit.
I would suggest making sure you keep the target locked until you do get the message if it is at all possible, in order to insure credit....'cause always when the game breaks the target lock the destroyed message is given. If I unlock to deal with another target I sometimes don't get the message/credit.
This is the big bug-a-boo for me with the realistic sinking mods. As much as I thoroughly enjoy the improved sinking characteristics these drawn out sinking times often rob me of credit. I can live with that, the improvement is worth the loss of credit. I guess what bothers me more is that, never being sure I have dealt the target a death blow, I tend to expend way too many torpedoes on each target.....just to be sure. And guess what?....that tactic robs me of tonnage credit too, in a way, if you catch my drift....

...but whats a Captain to do?....nothing is ever cut and dry and that adds excitement and spice.
