That would be real. Your own weapons are more dangerous to you than anything your enemy might do. That is always true, that is why recruits still paint the rocks white when it's snowing--to teach them enough not to shoot each other.

I think you can count the number of warships sunk in combat by subs in very low digits. If it is a fair fight, then you did not plan well. The whole reason of a sub is to stab a knife into a foe's back without risk to the sub.
