You still need to set the shot up for acoustic torpedoes. This includes setting the depth correctly -- for an "under the keel" shot. Acoustic torpedoes will rarely result in a nice impact shot, but they do work nicely by following a DD, undershooting the props and blowing up under the rear magazine.
They work well for removing escorts, but they can also be used to cripple a merchant (e.g. a fast moving tanker), allowing you the time to evade any escorts and come back for it later.
(PS: There's nothing wrong with FaT I torpedoes. I really like them!)
