f16, I read a book,
The Silent War : Cold War Battle Beneath the Sea by
John Pina Craven, where he describes the possible sinking of a
rogue Soviet sub the Red September. This is the incident which Tom Clancy based the The Hunt for Red October on.
John Craven was the Chief Scientist of the Navy's Special Projects Office, so I believe he has credibility in what he says.
Here is a link to the book on Barnes and Noble
The Silent
War
Whether or not the anyone has developed that technology ( The Caterpillar ), it would still be a closely guarded secret today.
