Timers were set for delayed explosion. I've read somewhere they used 6 seconds. The idea was that the bomb would hit the side of the ship, without exploding or penetrating. The bomb would then sink and detonate beneath the ship. The resulting pressure wave should lift the ship out of the water and 'break' its back.
