My comment on changing depth is based on actual experience.
Nuke boats don't usually do the crash dive of the old WWII movies or that were real back then. We were never really on the surface that much, besides the boats true element is underwater, and it rides a heck of a lot better.
You can and do change depth quickly, read the things people have written about torpedo evasion. The present setup makes that impossible.
Also you have to be able to deploy or retrieve the Towed Arrays and the antenna just as fast for the same reason.
consider this order-all head flank, make my depth 1000 feet do not cavitate, that means you go down really fast. Right now DW can do that.
