All around, sending TASM on frigates or even destroyers is useless. TASMs are slow. They will be shot down, if you send them one by one. If you send them all at once, it is quite possible that all will folow same chaff cloud and miss.
Use torpedoes for vessels with anti-missile defense. TASMs are good only for defenseless targets.
Harpoon is better. It is smaller and faster. But hardly a chance against big ships with missiles, guns and countermeasures.
Torpedo is always better. Yeah .. you must get closer, but that's what's sub good in. Any bloody frigate can shoot Harpoons, but only sub can get close enough to shoot torpedoes.
