Took 3 years to repair the USS San Francisco nose (crash) wiki says. Um,
isn't that where the torps were?
No, on many modern subs (and all of the USN ones, I think) the nose is
full of honking big sonar transducers, so the torpedo tubes (and torpedo
storage) had to be moved farther aft; the tubes are angled out. This is
not ideal but the sonar systems have priority.
