The weapons should be shutting down if they do anything more than a 120 degree turn prior to terminal homing, and they simply aren't.
In the game Mark 48's will not target own sub if the wire is attached
If the wire is broken they will target anything

Is this not the case in real life?

I am not doubting your knowledge Shadriss, it is a genuine question

I honestly do not know
