Well, how about history? The Mark 14, among other things, was known to have the weakest warhead of any nation during the war. TNT as opposed to Torpex -- something like that. Also, the contact exploder had issues during the early part of the war. Right angle hits and the firing pin would not engage.

Read about Daspit on the Tinosa, he fired a total of fifteen torpedos for no sinking on a stationary 20K Whaler. He claimed thirteen hit the target; He saw a splash! Contact exploder issue!
