Saw a video where someone pointed out the perpendicular shot was more a WW2 strategy than the current tactic of firing from the forward quarter. He said we will probably not find out why but the shot shown was unusual. Guess he was right. Mark 48 miss! Wow a ship not doing evasion.

I agree. If you carry out routine maintenance, that should not EVER happen. They should not be loaded on a sub in the first place unless the shore facility verified they were ready.
