Here are the Alfa specs:

Laid down: 1974 Launched: 1977 Commissioned: 1977 General Characteristics Displacement: 2300 tons surfaced, 3200 tonnes submerged Length: 81.4 metres Beam: 9.5 metres Draught: 7.6 metres Propulsion: OK-155 or BM-40A, 155-MWt Lead cooled fast reactor
40000 shp steam turbine, one shaft Speed: 18-24 knots surfaced, 43-45 knots submerged Depth: 800 m test, 1300 m crush Complement: 27 officers, 4 petty officers Armament: Six 533-mm (21-inch) torpedo tubes:
18 SET-65 or 53-65K torpedoes
20 VA-111 Shkval torpedoes
21 SS-N-15 cruise missiles
12 SS-N-16 cruise missiles
24 mines

1300 meters = 4265 feet (That is deep)

45 knots is damn fast too. that is just barely over 51 MPH. Getting close to torpedo territory.
