Very modern true multirole design - again watching the RN/UK MOD provaricate and fail to deliver designs not as capable as these is really upsetting/worrying.

Isn't that diameter of 0.85 meters a little too large for an asroc-type weapon? given that the torpedo is 324 mm? for example, the asroc is 42 cm in diameter
