A single Canberra was supplied to the Torpedo Development Unit at Gosport for parachute mine trials in 1953, but I don't think the idea of fitting torpedoes to the Canberra was ever considered. I suspect because it would have been too fast, resulting in the torpedo disintegrating on impact with the water.
