United States of America Torpedoes since World War II. In: Navweaps.com. 31. Oktober 2008, abgerufen am 23. Oktober 2009 (englisch): „The Mark 37 was considered to be an excellent antisubmarine weapon until submarine speeds reached the 20+ knot range and diving depths began to exceed 1,000 feet (330 m). The probability of sinking or seriously damaging a submarine capable of over twenty knots with a twenty-four knot torpedo is quite low (unofficial figures give a 10 % success rate for the Mark 37) and meeting such threats required new weapons.“
