The durability of the Typhoon in Cold Waters is greatly exaggerated IMHO

sure, it has design characteristics which are meant to increase its chances of surviving a direct hit by a torpedo - chiefly the parallel pressure hulls - but i seriously doubt the Typhoon could survive two direct hits... certainly not a third, and obviously not 5 and a harpoon missile strike.

I have never taken one out with less than 4 hits personally.

though the survivability of the platform has never been tested in combat, there is no denying it would be a tough nut to crack... but i dont think 5 ADCAPs and a missile tough
