In all likelihood these are the types of attacks that would have been attempted/preferred with the Mk 37 in wartime. If done right (launching sub not detected, target has course and speed that allow it to be intercepted by a 17 knot torpedo) this tactic can be quite successful, however the risks involved and the marginal nature of the weapon (both speed and warhead) lead to the development of the Mk 48.
