Search arond the forum for ship damage charts. These are schematics that show the vulnerable areas of ships: engine rooms, fuel bunkers, ammo bunkers, rudder and screws. I don't know if the charts are fully updated.

Engine rooms are usually right under the stacks or aft-most stack.

Fuel bunkers are usually immeadiately forward of the engine rooms (but sometimes aft).

As you say, ammo is stored below the turrets, but on a carrier, there are many, smaller turrets (aim for about one-fifth the ship's length in from bow or stern).

For completeness' sake, screws and rudders are, , in the rear.
