I think Red Storm Rising used to get around that problem by giving each torpedo so many units of fuel. Whatever... I don't think any of it matters that much.

So you exchanged one set of problems for another. :p
In any case if REALISM is your goal then yes it matters how range is computed for weapons (based on speed, manouvering, depth, fuel consumption, etc...)
