I've had some Mk 14s circle on me. Ironically, either they seem to do it when I actually am looking in the external camera at my torp (something I don't always do) or otherwise I must never get hit by them, because I've never been hit by my own torp as far as I know.

Of course, when I see it happen (someone should really call out "torpedo running hot, NOT STRAIGHT and who knows if it's normal, it's a mk 14 and the year is still 1942..." just so I know the torp is coming my way), I emergency deep my boat. Those things are scary.
