Usually Destroyers and other small ships (1000-1500 tons) go down with one torpedo. Obviously depending on the area and angle of impact there might take quite some time but generally speaking they do sink.
Merchant ships tend to be divided into three categories.
1. Small Ships (Small Merchant, Tramp Steamer etc) usually go down with one torpedo but they might take quite some time (up to 3-4 hours some times-Most of them though go under in less than one hour).
2. Medium Ships depending on their type tend to require two torpedoes.
3. Large Ships tend to require 2-3 torpedoes.
These are just rule of thumb, as I have used 4 torpedoes in a Small Merchant and a single fish in a Large Passenger Liner. Luck, area and angle of impact are vital for success in GWX.
