I thought they felt it could allow for high speeds with no cavitation, and no concerns about approaching or exceeding the speed of sound under water on any surfaces...no cavitation.

I\'m having trouble with the radar, sir.
What\'s wrong with it?
I\'ve lost the bleeps, I\'ve lost the sweeps, and I\'ve lost the creeps.
