G'day and welcome. I can;t say I've seen this problem mentioned in any of the threads before but you never know. I find most bugs like this can get fixed with a re-install, but don't get that drastic yet. Someone here may have the answer for you.

It's intentionally done that way. From their manual:

So why do it? Because the player knows that by disabling the magnetic pistol and setting the torpedo to a 1metre depth that they will not incur a realistic torpedo failure due to a premature detonation caused the torpedo slamming into the waves or a torpedo veering off course and/or heading towards the sea bed nor will the AI see a electric torpedo.
