Anti-frogman rocket launchers. (CS/AR-1)
Oh, right. I recall reading something about this system years back. Not sure why you couldn't just use an automatic grenade launcher like the US Mk19. It's 40mm instead of 55mm but the concept is still the same.

Anti-frogmen "rockets" have jet propulsors that help them penetrate deeper underwater. This likely works faster than letting gravity do all the work.

I remember the first voyage like yesterday

Latest process was night operations

I think CV-17 will cut that time in half give it a few years and both CV-16 and CV-17 will be doing night opps
