Oh I think you might have misunderstood me. What I meant is that a torpedo explodes when passing a CM, thinking that it is the target sub (because the torpedos active or passive acoustic fuze gets triggered).
Altough your idea is not far off. As far as I know, the smaller russian ASW mortars like RBU-1000 (rocket propelled depth charges) installed on surface warships, are primary meant as last defence against torpedos. Just like CIWS.
