200 knots is possible using a cavitation bubble ahead of the torpedo. The limiting factor is how much gas you can keep on board to provide the bubble.

Sounds crazy, but supercavitating torpedoes are a real thing. They bleed gases into the water. Those gases displace the water and the torpedo travels through the gases.
