One 48 didn't sink (immediately, at least) even the 15,000 ton Bushnell.

Even without a crew onboard, and wih all the W/T hatches and tanks open, the first damaged her, but didn't come close to sinking it.

The second, which hit her anchor chain (that had broken loose from the shock) put her under about 30 minutes later.

Guess it depends on how good a shot you are.:) Here's a pic of ex-Jonas Ingram brought low by one Mk-48 ADCAP
