High-Altitude Torpedo Launch
Oh, you might detect a Typhoon, but not much else! Actually, as you
undoubtedly know, MAD slant range is far less than a mile so these
launches would have to be basically wishful thinking, or against a
visually sighted target such as a sinker or a shallow runner. I can't
think of any other situation that would allow an attack, unless the
attacking aircraft watched a submarine launch a weapon.

Would systems like Blue-Green Laser Radars or Hyperspectral sensors

be more useful than MAD in situations like this?
Dunno - the Navy slicked the rest of my brain when I got out.
