Collisions and Unsinkable Merch

I watched a merchant run directly into a destoryer. The destroyer tipped port, scraped along the bow of the merch until it was free, then continued on as if nothing happened. No damage to either vessel. Pity, I'd have really liked to have one less escort to worry about. Is this an oversight by the developers? Pretty big one, if so. Has anyone else experienced this?

Speaking of no damage, I've fired 6 or 7 torpedos into a Large Modern Tanker. Lots of fires, but she hasn't slowed down at all, and shows no hull damage. It should look like swiss chees by now. Is this some kind of problem with the software? Should I even TRY to finish this one off?I haven't been able to sink anything since this encounter (though the opportunity to fire more than 1 or 2 torpedos hasn't presented itself). I did see hull damage on a different tanler, but not sunk with 2 hits (probably not a big deal, but she's not DIW either).
