Well I guess it could fool wake-homers. I mean to stream nixie, go flank, make circle, go 5 kts away from torpedo course and slowly move away.
I'll try.
On the other hand, the best protection is just quess where the torpedo will go, and move away from that place. It works most times agains AI. AI leads a shot .. it aims ahaead of your current position. So it is best to make 180 degree turn and run away from the point you were going to. But sometimes even AI has bad fix. You can use buoys to check where the torpedo is going.
Humans can take this evasion into account. 2 torpedoes, or wireguiding can ruin this tactic. So only thing you have left is 'run as hell'.
