Acoustic torpedo
An acoustic torpedo is a torpedo designed for medium-range use, often fired from a submarine. In general, acoustic torpedoes are equipped with a mid-grade acoustic sensor designed either to detect the sound of churning water from a moving vessel, or actively to locate targets using SONAR.
