I have seen the same. The little bugger seems to be nose heavy anyway. I had a few in a convoy, rough seas. All were ok with exception of this little streamer plowing the water and just seeming to be going down. At any rate, hit just below the forward mast and the nose will sometimes break off. I have seen a similar thread over at the SH3 forums as well.
BTW, 2 torpedoes sure beats the heck out of 6 and 90 cannon shells like 1.1a
