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.
