Sometimes they work, some times they don't. Yesterday I fired two and one exploded on the way to target, the other hit and exploded just fine. I then surfaced and used deck gun.

The messages you get reflect how torpedo malfunctions were at the beginning of the war
Running 2 m under depth set and exploding prem due to bad weather and even IIRC the magnetics in the baltic waters causing problems
You should have no problem with impact pistols though - as long as your not hitting too low on the curve of the hull or at too bad an impact angle
I usually set my impacts between 3 and 5 m depending on the ship
DD need 2m
Keel shots are great as long as the weather is calm
