unexploded ammunition
Although both translations could be accurate for above ground (land) circumstances, for UNDERWATER you need to use "unexploded ammunition". Check the link below for the Kursk submarine accident and how it is referred. I cautiom "Live" can only be used for ammunition that can be utilized in combat, if it is underwater it is not longer usable.

unexploded cartridge
See e.g.:
'If the unexploded cartridge went off before Jen was able to get it into the protective box that had been brought in, the only thing that would save the Saratoga was the pressure locked Bay doors' (reference 1),
and
'Sergeant Goetz found one unexploded cartridge of Dupont
Tovex explosive next to the small building' (reference 2)
Hope this helps.
