Sinking enemy subs

Once I came across an S class and started an approach on the surface. It noticed me and opened fire. I responded in kind, and it quickly submerged. I think it was trying to ram me but that could be my imagination. Anyway since I could see the periscope I disabled it with a few shells to the now underwater conning tower. It wasn't moving, and I easily put an additional 20 shells into it, but it refused to sink. I paraded in front of it to see if it would shoot torpedoes but it didn't (it could also have been too badly damaged, i don't know if that is modeled).
Finally I shot a "vertical spread" at three different depths and hit it. The "torpedo impact" and "she's going down!" messages were simultaneous. The sinking S class would have made for some cool screenies If I knew how to take them.
