The tungsten-tipped CAV-X bullet
The supercavitating round might allow Navy SEALs to open fire before they break the surface.
And never mind that over-penetration stuff...a .223 round went through over 17' of ballistic gel and a .50bmg will go through 2 cm of steel under 17 meters of water (read periscope depth).

Never mind shooting through sandbags and body armor...this could change the job of infantry a bit. Cover? What's that.
