You MAY be correct about the old torpedo. There was a British TV
programme that pointed with good evidence to this fact.
However - I think a point is being missed here ?
Super-Cavitation Technology ?
What can be applied to a torpedo can equally applied to a submarine.
Not easily, rocket propelled submarines would seem
a non trivial development.
The Russians have retired their 'Golden Bullet' 45 knot Alpha Class
Submarines.
Given their design , liquid metal cooled rectors etc that
was very wide of them
A 'Super-Cavitating' submarine that uses this ability as a 'sprint' ?
And makes so much noise that every SOSUS station on the
planet hears them
Interesting no ?
No
