The torpedo doesn't have to be WW2 vintage -- a modern version would be smaller, lighter, more intelligent and infinitely more deadly.

Incidentally, the problem the German gunners had with it was that their state-of-the-art predictors for calculating lead for their guns wouldn't work for planes flying slower than about 100mph. They couldn't draw a bead on the things.
