All the TV/Radio reports are about the warship the US has sunk, being the first torpedo sinking since WW2.

Has everyone forgotten the torpedo sinking of the Argentinian cruiser General Belgrano by HMS Conqueror during the Falklands war in 1982?

US torpedoes have sunk plenty of ships since WWII, they were just SINKEX effort against non moving ships.
