Noting on the Sram Website they applied the old Sachs Torpedo name to a hub
that will with several screwdriver turns , be fixed or freewheel.
+ it uses common 3 spline sturmey archer 3 speed type cogs .
A quick swap once you get the knack of the Snap-ring holding it on.
not 3 speed , but useful

I've put a couple thousand kms on one of those Sram Torpedos. My Raleigh One Way came with one. It has quite a bit of backlash when in fixed mode, which can't really be adjusted out. And quite a bit of drag in freewheel mode. So pick your poison.
