Best Answer

Inducing cavitation in water at the front of a bullet would eliminate water friction on most of the surface of the bullet. Doing so would greatly increase the maximum speed and maximum range of an underwater projectile.

Experiments have shown that it is possible to fire bullets with cavitation devices at speeds exceeding the speed of sound in water; this would make such a projectile invisible to submarines relying on sonar.
