What period of the war are you playing?
The Mk14 torpedo has 2 period's, 01/01/1938 to 01/06/1943 & 01/06/1943 to 31/12/1949.
Each period has it's own set of values for chances of failure for impact and magnetic pistols; Depth and Gyro.
For the period 01/01/1938 to 01/06/1943 when the Mk14 torpedo is set at slow i.e. 31 kt's then all dud chances are scaled down by 50%.
For the period 01/06/1943 to 31/12/1949 there are no failures specified for impact and magnetic pistols. There are also no failures specified for Depth. The Gyro error is 20%.
