Not really. It's best to fire so your torpedo tack runs at 0 degrees. That means your best shot may be when the the target is a few degrees right or left. Less for slow ships and more for fast movers. And when shooting ay 2 ships, always choose the farthest one 1st. If you really plot it out, you can get hits on both ships within a few seconds of each other. When I do that I get a nice nod from the COB.
