That way I can hit 2 targets in one attack run and if I continue on my path I can work another shooting oppertunity from the convoy moving across my path.
While it would be much harder to do with full manual aim (ie work 2 sets of TDC calcs) the 45 degree attack angle method is a staple in my play book.

I too have been approachin at a similar angle... just made sence to me. As you said if you miss you still have an easy correction to fire again. Plus the closing angles of the torp and the intended target..... well just makes sense its faster.
Ive been doing this out of 'instinct' its pretty cool so see my guesses confirmed.
