SUBROCs were designed primarily to carry nuclear depth charges, as their accuracy is poor. In fact, few people realize that the nuclear SUBROC was the primary ASW weapon of the nuclear Navy (during the Cold War).
It's open to debate as to whether non-nuclear SUBROCs are effective weapons. It would appear from the fact that the US has largely removed them from service that at least the USN doesn't think so. Cheers, David
