The explosion on the ship points to your general direction and if they see your torp tacks that's another clue. I'm new to SH4 so I can not say for sure, the only thing I can say from SH3/GWX is select the best target fire a spread of torps and get the heck out of there.
Never sit there to watch the firework show.
