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
