I'm thinking before they sent in a torpedo, they would need to place a homing device on each target. We had a US ship in that area that could get that done.
Once the homing devices were placed, the P-8 Poseidon was well equipped to detect that the devices were working properly and transmitting before releasing the torpedoes.
I was just looking at a video about the P-8 Poseidon. Its special capability is to drop torpedoes from 30,000 ft to surprise a submarine. So it was perfect for this mission.
