british america french even german all said same

in the early 80's a 688 trailed a al'fa only to loose her due to the fact she out dived and out ran the trailing sub

according to the records

now the 688 dives to 1600 feet yet the al'fa out dived it indicating a depth below 1600 feet which is below 400 meters

NATO has also demed the al'fa vertualy indistructable by lightwieght torpedos but can be destroyed by an ADCAP or tigerfish
