blech, I support dis-information to a degree but honestly the torpedoes of the future will be launched by underwater versions of the Predator, they will be using supercavitation propulsion or basically upgraded versions of an underwater high speed missile which has been used in recent years by other countries like Russia, the warhead though would be a limited range plasma sphere that can be pre-dialed in of varying diameter from less than one meter to as much as 50 meters, a plasma bubble would be hotter than the surface of the sun, produce no hazardous radiation and no shock wave other than creating secondary explosions.
A plasma torpedo can create a massive hole that removes hull plating completely not just by explosion. There is no far off fantasy of this, its been in R&D for years now.

Got any links to the “Plasma Bubble” warhead?

i vote for misinformation. We don’t have any battleships in the active fleet BTW.

Just so's you know: the article is from 1938. Homer has been posting them for a few months now, giving us a look back at the run-up to WWII, and it's a fascinating study -- seeing where and how things are similar to and different from what's going on today.

You can ask to be put on his ping list....
