I thought it was interesting that they were actually thinking of having the shadowing destroyers turn themselves into kamikazes and had actually trained them to try to close and ram.
Also really calls into question whether Boomer could have ever actually happened with the fact that the Soviet boomers needed two hours minimum of hovering at periscope depth to be able to do a launch. Especially as that submarine gets off multiple launches spread over weeks - I can see her doing it once and surviving but three times?
