60's sub tactics

Ok so the Mk16's have no self guidance other than a gyroscope but according to wiki:

"The Mod 0 warhead contained 1260 lb (572 kg) of TPX explosive and was the most powerful conventional submarine torpedo warhead ever used by any Navy"

So, wow that will make for some interesting times.

The Mk37 is interesting as well but seems to be slow but self guiding with a smaller 330lbs warhead.

Going to make us change up tactics considerably between platforms and eras, fantastic!
