In anti-surface mode, it is capable of magnetic fusing for under-keel detonations.

When in anti-sub mode, it has a contact fuse that triggers a shaped charge like a HEAT warhead, which directs a jet of plasma into the submarine, so the torpedo can burrough into the hull before detonating, designed specificially to eat through the outer hulls of large russian submarines and detonate between the pressure hulls, greatly improving the chances of a kill against Typhoons and Oscars.

There are probably a few other modes out there as well...
