Is anything required to allow for that?

I mean, my assumption would be that shooting a Mk37 from the baffles of a November-class trucking along at 10 knots or so should be a pretty safe shot - with a torpedo swim-out lacking a launch transient, I can't imagine he'd be able to hear that before it was too late.

Yet, you take that shot and BAM he's at full speed and hard-turning about, with, as often as not, a snap shot coming your way.

So it seems like...?not implemented?
