After a lacklustre patrol I decided to pay Freetown a visit and to my surprise, saw my prize target, the 24000 ton liner on fire and sinking as well as a couple of other ships. Could it have been these guys got ahead of me? GWX BTW.

I thought AI subs cannot fire torpedoes/engage enemies, so how comes the AI subs you saw sank ships???

No, I arrived as they were engaging the ships with their flak cannon, and they sank two ships during my approach to the convoy. I saw them attacking, and I saw them sink two of them.

They can't fire "Real" torpedoes, but Serg made a virtual torpedo (a modified cannon), that's what they fire, also flack guns.

I just plugged in GWX this weekend and ran into a surfaced enemy sub just outside St Nazaire. Actually had a surface fight with him. AI sub was firing deck gun and both AA guns at me. I closed to within 500m because this was too cool. he won.
