No need to.
Several torpedoes and various types of warheads (including nuclear)
were recovered by the Glomar Challenger.  You can read about some of
this in the book, A Matter of Risk, on the mission.  Check a library.
I got my copy at the Caltech Bookstore (with various photos) years
ago.  My copy long ago disappeared into LLNL when I leant it to
an ex-Ames now LLNL Division chief.  Both the GC and HMB-1 (sail by
it every Friday in Redwood City [right next to NeXT] sit in
various parts of the SF Bay.  Perhaps they can be used to recover the
7-8 nukes (reactors) from the environmental hazards [half joking]. ;)
