You know, something just occurred to me...
Is there a depth limitation for supercavitation? If not, then hypothetically, couldn't a sub dive to immense depths within the pocket that supercavitation creates? After all, the pressure would be significantly reduced within the pocket...that's the entire point of the technology, isn't it? To reduce the water's force of drag on an object. Why wouldn't that extend to pressure as well?
