All of the American and German submarines are shown to be using torpedoes equipped with proximity detonators which allow the torpedo to detonate when in close proximity to the target without actually hitting it. Although German, Britain and the U.S. experimented with magnetic proximity detonators at the beginning of the war they proved to be so problematic that they were quickly withdrawn from service and for the remainder of the war all parties relied on contact detonators.
