Yea right, they WISH they had a red triangle

Sure, even the little Fido (much smaller than a normal torpedo) was 100% fatal if it hit a sub, but the question is hitting it. And at night against a small moving target... of course they'd go for a spread!
Also, I recall a story of an investigation about the sinking of a Spanish sub during their civil war which suggested that it was sunk by a dud torpedo from a U-boat

Subs ain't build to witstand torpedo hits!
And yea, American radar... I look forward to it in SHIV
