The duration a submarine can stay underwater varies based on its type and resources. Nuclear-powered submarines can stay submerged for several months, limited primarily by the crew's food supply and psychological factors. In contrast, diesel-electric submarines typically have a few days of underwater endurance before they need to surface or use a snorkel to recharge their batteries. Overall, the specific duration depends on the submarine's design and mission requirements.

Could submarines fire torpedos underwater?

Yes. The idea of the submarine is the element of surprise. Before nuclear power submarines ran on either battery power or diesel power. Every so often it needed to surface (or use a snorkle - no kidding, it's called a snorkle) to run the diesel (which would both propel the sub and charge the battery) Now, with nuclear power, the submarine can stay underwater as long as there is food for the crew. A submarine nuclear reactor can last for years.
