Are there any SAMs small enough to fit into a Torpedo casing?
Any MANPADS will fit into a normal torpedo casing.
Most MANPADS will fit into the volume taken up by the warhead and its
associated gubbins. SHORAD missiles like Chapparal, Crotale, Rapier, Roland
and ADATS will fit into a torpedo casing, but the volume devoted to the
engine and fuel may have to be reduced. Only the IR seeking missiles seem
likely for such adaptation, the others do not have terminal homing.
