Talk:Mark 48 torpedo

message: Recent show on the Virginia class on the Discovery channel mentions the ADCAP runs at around 60 knots. --Calyth 03:54, 18 August 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Speed data

message: I am unaware that the Royal Navy designed the Mark 48, I believe at the time they were involved in the testing and production of the Tigerfish Torpedo which was a far inferior design and was replaced by the Spearfish Torpedo which is at least as good as the latest ADCAP Mod 6.  Given the restraints on the British defense spending I have a bit of a problem believing that they would design a Torpedo for the US and then develope a worse design for themselves... Anything is possible but we really need a citation for that one. Tirronan 16:31, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Designed by the Royal Navy?

message: Would there be support for moving this article to "Mark 48 torpedo"? Most of the internal links point to that page, which in turn redirects here; it's also a more descriptive name when the article shows up on category lists.  Engineer Bob 07:35, 27 October 2005 (UTC)

message: "The official performance data may be a gross understatement, according to non-military sources that put the depth at greater than 600 meters, the top speed between 60 to 75 knots (110 to 140 km/h), the range at top speed at more than 20 nautical miles (37 km), and the range at lower speeds at more than 30 nautical miles (56 km)."
This is about as bad a case of unsourced statement as possible. Putting here if someone complains. Just in case, this is incorrect anyway, particularly the speed speculation. CP/M comm |Wikipedia Neutrality Project| 07:19, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Cleaned out 

message: The primary units of measurement in this article ought to be feet and inches for small measurements and yards, knots, and nautical miles for large measurements because those are the units used by the US Navy, and any official data is published under those parameters.
