Yes, according to the - public released - weapon specs, the MK-48 is quite realistic. In real life it would be 1-shot-1-kill most of the time for the same type of vessels I think.
As a response and to catch up, the Russians have developed torpedos with nuclear warheads and such ones running at very high speed for more impact momentum to help the explosion. Such torpedos can put in pieces a big vessel with a single hit. However you hear them in the water as clear as a song of Michael Jackson....Even as a sonar man on a CVN, it's likely the last thing you will hear in your life...
