My post from another thread,
Sub launched missles.
This was the public announcement in 2012. It was probably in dev/testing for years before this release. This was only one example of many that came up.
This is an easy Google search.

Thanks, Gary!
Now let's see if our naval sub combat tech experts have a comment...
Lower Deck: Ridiculous stories of non-existent weapons tests is not the way to explain it.
Any comment on this existing sub missile system, Lower Deck?
OA5599: What hyperbole? I am a submarine vet of that era and I am telling you that we did not have anti-aircraft capability. So either it did not exist or it was a greater secret than the NOFORN, Confidential, and Secret information I was freely given and Top Secret information I was exposed to. Or maybe I'm part of the conspiracy...
Maybe you are indeed, OA5599.
TWA 800 was destroyed in 1996. In 1996, I was in the navy in the submarine service. We did not have anti-aircraft capability onboard submarines then, and I'm pretty sure we still do not now.
