I teach those weapons. That show was full of crap. It used Firing Point Procedures for a weapon that wasn't shot (at the wrong type of target no less), and stock footage of a harpoon(!) leaving the water.
Take these shows with a grain of salt. The Navy only allows them to see so much, the rest is just edited in to make it more interesting by people who don't understand what they're editing to begin with. Do you think your average documentary producer really understands on any level, "match sonar bearings and shoot?"
