Surely you are joking. If a hostile can get a torpedo that close to the target without being detected, they would just use a ordinary torpedo and warhead instead.
- asdff 4y agoMaybe the ordinary torpedo with a warhead is too large and visible on radar. The drone torpedo could be much smaller, maybe the size of a common fish in the area. Maybe you have a bunch of them herded together traveling under water in the same manner as a school of fish might appear on radar.
- MichaelCollins 4y agoTorpedoes aren't visible on radar, you mean sonar. You're not going to sink a ship with 500g explosive fish-shaped torpedo-launched drone things. This plan boils down to a really weird and elaborate method of throwing hand grenades at a super-carrier until it sinks. This whole line of discussion is absurd.
