Good luck managing to hit a destroyer with a fixed gun.

I would imagine that if you did manage a hit though, it would be devastating. I don't think there were many ships that could shrug off hits from a 12 inch gun. Even if it didn't sink, it would probably be badly damaged, which might give the sub the opportunity to surface somewhere safe, reload, and shoot again.
