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.

The Russians have retired their 'Golden Bullet' 45 knot Alpha Class Submarines.

A 'Super-Cavitating' submarine that uses this ability as a 'sprint' ?

Interesting no ?

Both you and the website author are being goofy.

The site clearly states that this is an _anti-submarine_ torpedo.

In addition, the website is wrong about this being the cause for the sinking
of the Kursk. The Russians have concluded that it was actually an older,
conventional torpedo that probably caused the loss.
