[edit] Appearance in Red Storm Rising

This article says the contract was placed in 1994, but Red Storm Rising has a copyright date of 1986. Is the Spearfish in the book really the same as this torpedo, or is the naming of the torpedo a coincidence or perhaps an homage?

I worked on Spearfish development in the 1980's, so the 1994 date may refer to an initial production contract

It's perfectly possible Clancy read about a weapon in development and decided to include it on the grounds that his book was set a few years in the future. BobThePirate 11:02, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
