My idea of making Anti-ship missile/Torpedo hybrid

I've been thinking about making an Anti ship missile with a short range torpedo installed in the bottom of it's body (2/5 of torpedo would be inside the missile body). When the missile reaches a good distance of the enemy ship, it drops the torpedo and enters the last phase (pop-on attack). Enemy ship would be deviated to counter the missile and wouldn't have time to confront the torpedo. What is your opinion?

I think the torpedo will have issues reaching the ship. So you have a missile moving at, let's say, mach 2 sea level, it drops the torpedo. Assuming it does not get destroyed by impacting the water, will it even enter the water, or will the speed be too much for it to even go below the water for the next few x kilometers. Assuming it goes under the water when the missile drops it, it will have to deal with enormous friction at that speed.

I say create AUVs, put them in the shores of the Persian Gulf and upon order make them do slow silent one way missions to all ships they encounter. This would be a good size:

Thats why in the submarine warfare torpedoes are shot from a helicopter with a parachute. The impact with the water should not be too high

The missile will probably have a speed of mach 0.7-0.8. So with a parachute the impact would be lessened so that the torpedo doesn't get destroyed.

Why not have karrar stick to the sea and fire off two+ missiles at a ship?
