Abstract

"From the laboratory may come new ideas and discoveries that will affect tomorrow's torpedoes. The solution of water entry problems of fast moving missiles would, reduce to a large degree, broaching and erratic runs. If the greater part of cavitation's effect were overcome, the Navy's torpedoes would have more speed and better control than ever before."
