Answers: What are some of the most terrifying underwater disasters and close calls involving submarines and fishing boats?
- Submarine accidents and implosions
- Ocean eddies and currents
- Submarine command training courses
- Fishing vessel bottom trawling and midwater trawling
- Underwater sonar detection and search operations
What it concludes
- Submarines operating near maximum operational depth face extreme pressure risks that can lead to catastrophic implosion if pipes burst or systems fail.
- The 1963 disaster of the USS Thresher resulted in the loss of all 129 crew members after it exceeded test depth following a pipe failure.
- Underwater ocean eddies can generate powerful forces capable of dragging submarines and fishing vessels toward crush depth.
- The 1990 sinking of the fishing vessel Antares occurred because its trawl line snagged an underwater submarine during an exercise, dragging the boat under.
