We were discussing hitting boats with a torpedo's last night on Crater map. Found a link Skuzzy put back in 2014.

The most important thing to know about sinking ships with torpedos is to not tell anybody or you can guarantee they will spend themselves in a flaccid attack over and over which causes a task group driver to turn the ships.   

You won’t be landing torpedos in this scenario.

Same goes for naval battles.   

Remember being in the middle of a ship vs ship gun battle only to have a fellow countryman turn the task group with repeated course changes from 12 sectors away?   

Good luck landing or taking off from the circling CV.   

Good luck maintaining a firing solution.
