I think you're wrong. Early war the skippers would be happy if 1 out of 10 exploded near the target.
I don't remember which skipper this was but this was after about a year into the war when he saw a tanker sail by. Out of 16 fishes, the first one hit as intended, 14 duds, the last one was taken back to base to investigate. The way CCIP modded the torpedoes reflects the frustration of the RL skippers just a tiny bit. They ( those RL skippers) were blamed by High Command their aiming was what's wrong. Go figure......

If anything, the torpedoes we use in game, even with CCIP's torpedo mod are too reliable.........
