A proposed torpedo interception system to halt submarines
The article argues submarines depend on torpedoes, not the craft itself. It sketches a defense using multiple electrically driven motor torpedoes launched from a 600 foot ship, controlled by officers in mast turrets to intercept enemy torpedoes before they strike. It notes low cost, manageable power needs, and potential to stalemate submarine warfare.
