Wish I had that block :)
I suspect the way to go is make a sub act as a carrier, eg a parent sub with a few battery powered "sublets".  They would be the teeth, have a range of a few hundred k or so and  attach and recharge from the carrier.
But conflicts will be fought with DNA tech from now on surely ??  Given our pollies and military, I half expect a PR promo featuring how the Glorious Powers that be, are Fighting Off The Viruses using the Mark 48 Wire-Guided Torpedo. God help us.
