摘要

There is an old principle in warfare that "quantity has a quality all of its own." The accuracy of this maxim has become questionable in recent years because precision-guided munitions and area-effect weapons have turned "quantity" from a battle-winning advantage to simply the crowding of more targets into a kill zone. Yet, while land warfare and naval surface combat are seeing quality becoming ascendant over quantity, the undersea warfare market is moving in the opposite direction. No advanced or expensive platform is required to fire a modern homing torpedo, yet an under-the-keel hit from that torpedo will kill a large and sophisticated target, such as a DDG-51 class destroyer or a Littoral Combat Ship. Because the launch platform is basic and inexpensive, it can be purchased in large quantities. Thus, the chance of getting in a lethal shot is increased.
