That said, i super doubt a modern torpedo abuse commander would even have to be that tanky. The tank build was popular because the idea behind underwater combat not erasing surface was that it would be low dps, so you would prefer surface units to do real damage. Or something. In practice sea play was almost completely underwater, and regenerating long-ranged tanky commanders were indestructible given that everything else was low dps.

But
that
made
sense
because
the
sniper
subs
could
still
at
least
match
range
with
the
commander.
A
range-buffed
torp
commander
in
modern
zk
will
outrange
everything
and
thus
it
will
only
need
to
take
damage
if
it's
slower
than
its
adversaries.
This
means
that
it
will
try
to
be
fast
rather
than
thick.
Lobbing
an
Ultimatum
at
such
a
mobile
target
is
not
going
to
be
super
easy.
