 Newport and Navy Torpedoes - An Enduring Legacy
Shortly thereafter, NUOS assumed a key role in the development of the wire-guided, electrically-driven acoustic homing torpedo, Mark 37, which reached the Fleet in 1956 and then embarked on a technology program to prepare the ground for a new generation of heavyweight submarine torpedoes responsive to the growing <b>Sovietb> threat.
This approach was adopted successfully by the Japanese before the war for both submarine and surface-ship torpedoes, among the latter, the infamous 24" "Long Lance," which emerged as the most effective destroyer torpedo of the conflict.
Grave suspicion about torpedo performance began to emerge among submarine commanders in the first months of 1942, the result of failed attacks on enemy ships from deep running, premature detonations, and frequent dud hits.
