Then, at the last moment, it will try to correct by banking at your position. When that happens, the release goes wide due to the turn the plane is trying to make. It results in the torpedo arriving at the contact to soon, thus missing. I tried everything from Torpedo range, aircraft height etc... nothing worked.

Thank you AkbarGulag for the help, I guess I won't waste any time with torpedo planes, and if none of the other planes do any better I may have to scrap the Bismark Sea battle all together, since it was almost completely won by air. Although the topedo planes in real life had difficulty finding the convoy due to bad weater and only two found it and neither scored any hits, so I guess so far it's true.
