New Heavyweight Torpedo for US, Australia

Bort · 11-17-05, 02:24 AM

I just read this PR release from the Austrailian Minister of Defence concerning upgrades to their subs, as well as joining the US in developing the Heavyweight Torpedo System. This is the first I've heard of this program. All I can say is that it's about time a sucessor was found for the Mk. 48. It is getting abit long in tooth. Anyone else have info about this new torpedo?
