Damage from Light Weapons in GWX

While testing some new ships using GWX I decided to make a surface attack. I noticed that apart from my U-Boat incurring damage from the merchants' and trawler's heavy deck guns, the light 20mm armament was able to do pretty substantial damage to the sub. IIRC the 20mm was actually powerful enough to cause flooding. Did this usually happen in real life? I was under the impression that the pressure hull was able to resist nearly anything up to heavy calibre (4-5 inch) Naval weapons. No criticism of the modmakers is intended.
