The modern torpedo is a self-propelled weapon with an explosive warhead, launched above or below the water surface, propelled underwater towards a target, and designed to detonate either on contact with its target or in proximity to it.
Historically, it was called an automotive, automobile, locomotive or fish torpedo; colloquially called a fish. The term torpedo was originally employed for a variety of devices, most of which would today be called mines. From about 1900, torpedo has been used strictly to designate an underwater self-propelled weapon. The original torpedo is a kind of fish: an electric ray.
While the battleship had evolved primarily around engagements between armoured ships with large-caliber guns, the torpedo allowed torpedo boats and other lighter surface ships, submersibles, even ordinary fishing boats or frogmen, and later, aircraft, to destroy large armoured ships without the need of large guns, though sometimes at the risk of being hit by longer-range shellfire.

this song makes mah life rock`z,, just watch it,, this is ah very nice song
Russia has never been shy when it comes to weaponry, so why should we all be surprised that they now have a super torpedo that is capable of wiping out submarines at 200 miles per hour? This new revolutionary weapon is capable of traveling at speeds six times faster than its previous models and has a few leaders sweating under the collar.
TORPEDO SINKS SHIP! Attack submarine OBLITERATES DESTROYER with direct hit! (Test only, NOT real combat.) This TRAINING EXERCISE video (courtesy of the Royal Australian Navy – footage shot on June 4th, 1999) features an Australian diesel-electric Collins-class submarine (HMAS Farncomb – SSG 74) and an obsolete/decommissioned River-class destroyer escort (HMAS Torrens – DE53). Newly commissioned (at the time) Farncomb, participating in a final series of combat systems trials, successfully fired a Mk-48 torpedo at the Torrens. The warhead seems to have detonated directly beneath Torrens, creating a powerful pressure wave that lifted her into the air and decisively broke her keel. (The Mark 48 is an American made heavyweight torpedo. The impressive weapon is carried by all U.S. Navy subm...
Exploiting a range of innovations and advances in torpedo technology, a single F21 is able to knock out any surface combatant or submarine. The high energy density AgO-Al primary battery offers both high maximum speed and extended range while the new-generation acoustic head guarantees improved search efficiency from very shallow to deep waters. Fully digitized technologies result in an improved signal processing and enhanced overall performance. Meeting the French Navy's stringent requirements, F21 is suitable for use with all submarines, from SSBNs & SSNs to conventional-propulsion types and can be deployed in swim-out or push-out modes. Key points: - Dual purpose : anti-submarine & anti-ship - Green & blue water capabilities - High speed and endurance - Long-range fiber optic wire guid...
So come on torpedo
So come on torpedo
I know how to take a right hook
I know how to put a shot back
I know how to fake a hard look
When I just about done lost everything that I had
They've been hunting me for decades
Barracudas on a warpath
But they'll never get me
I will not idly go, I got too much to fight for
So come on torpedo do your worst
Get me right in the heart, blow me up 'til you see my ghost
But I will not lay down in the road
I will not make it easy
I ain't got no saints or saviors
This is guerrilla and I will fight this war
So come on torpedo
Just a little more morphine
A little peace while I writhe
I'll get back into it easy
Saddle up my horse and ride like a wildfire
There's no water so wicked
No rapid so ruthless
This may be the way I die
But I gotta try for the other side
So come on torpedo do your worst
Get me right in the heart, blow me up 'til you see my ghost
But I will not lay down in the road
I will not make it easy
I ain't got no saints or saviors
This is guerrilla and I will fight this war
So come on torpedo
Heart in my throat, dirt on my nose
Dark diamond in my eyes, will my demons ever die?
Heart in my throat, dirt on my nose
Dark diamond in my eyes, will my demons ever die?
So come on torpedo do your worst
Get me right in the heart, blow me up 'til you see my ghost
But I will not lay down in the road
I will not make it easy
I ain't got no saints or saviors
This is guerrilla and I will fight this war
So come on torpedo
