The Mk 48 is in a couple of mods, 688i, Skipjack, and Ohio come to mind.

That last video was impressive. Seeing how the target flexed like that almost made me think this was a model.. That is one powerful explosive wave!

Realistic Sinking Physics my butt! That ship is going down.

Actually not that impressive. I'm assuming he was nowhere near full speed, as the faster a ship moves the tighter it can turn. I timed him as making 180 degrees in just over one minute. There have been destroyers in the past which could make as much as 270 degrees at full speed.

His tactical diameter looked about average to me.

Is that really true or is there an optimum speed for the quickest turn?

There is a difference between making a faster turn and a tighter turn. More speed often makes for a faster turn ... but it usually also makes for a wider turn.
