This is likely SS-N-16 standoff missile that drops a homing torpedo.

I thought of the missile also, but the OP did not mention seeing the launch animation.

OP might not have event cam turned on or his sonar missed the transient.

Not playing beta, (BuildID: 2089564), and I will have to check on the camera setting. No launch animation was seen. The torpedo appeared near me, circled once, homed in and BOOM!

I will check my camera setting while I am thinking about it. Thank you.

Also, the enemy was running deep, as well, and several thousand yards away heading away from me. The torpedo appeared off to starboard, almost exactly 90* from my position.

"Event Camera" box is checked. Since I am still new to this game, it is very possible I did not notice the launch transient, but I would have remembered seeing the launch animation.
