Re: Anti-submarine warfare
Nick -
TOCH cut me off just as I was completing a long post on this and I couldn't recover it. It covered the wartime development by the Germans of a special underwater acoustic/sonic detonator and Hexogen and Trimethylenetrinitramine high compression/blast effect explosives for use in bombs, torpedoes, aerial torpedoes and sea mines. Although not mentioned directly, that sounds like crushing submarine hulls to me. See Lusar, op cit, pp.229-34.
