seen this happen a few times in stock and GWX... it hits the prop area and bounces back and re-tracks the target and continues to repeat the process until it either runs out of steam or it detonates... impact or magnetic triggers seem to make no difference in the prop bounce off activity.

its kinda cool.... untill the torpedo fails to impact and sinks to the bottom, not so cool then

if it was a solid 90 degree impact as Bulsoldier stated and it just bounced off and sank it had to be a dud.
