Do torpedo boats fire their torpedoes?

I suspect that the dev's didn't get the code working properly in time and just disabled it.

Rather unfortunate - destroyers, elco-boats, other submarines and torpedo bombers all used these as a primary weapon.

In fact, in late war the Allies used planes that dropped the FIDO homing torpedo against uboats - destroying about 60 of them.

The dev's didn't model this because it was an 'instant kill weapon' - however some form of enemy torpedo firing would be nice.
