bird watcher don't take my observations as opinions

The US Navy launched approx 14,750 torpedoes during WWII. Estimates are 50-65% of those were duds until they corrected the problem in early 1944. The US lost 52 submarines and a third of that number were accidents or torpedo return in blue on blue sub seppuku. The submariners had a fatality rate of approx 22% and the submarine force comprised 1.6% of total USN strength sinking 55% of all enemy shipping targeted by the USN.
