Hammerhead mines
https://www.popularmechanics.com/mil...mmerhead-mine/
China has 66 subs now.
One important role for Hammerhead could be to stop Russia’s new Poseidon nuclear apocalypse torpedo. Poseidon, a large, 65 foot long nuclear-powered torpedo with a two megaton warhead, is designed to attack ports and coastal targets during a nuclear war. Poseidon would likely be launched from specially modified Russian Navy submarines and travel underwater at speeds of 56 knots, making it difficult to intercept. A wall of Hammerhead mines laid across likely Poseidon transit routes could stop the doomsday weapon in its tracks.
The Navy began work on Hammerhead in 2018 and wants industry to deliver 30 prototypes in 2021. Production mines should be delivered in 2023.Last edited by CUDA; 10-23-2020 at 10:09 PM.

Will have ruskies, chinas, and ours sitting down there. I bet we have other things that will pop a sub at 1500' depth. Like a transducer ping, but much stronger. Or a "rod from God" weapon.
