Default HMS Thistle WWII Sub may have been found

https://www.barrons.com/news/images-...arine-9948583d



Underwater images captured by the Norwegian Institute of Marine Research show what is believed to be the wreckage of the British submarine HMS Thistle off the coast of Norway. On April 10, 1940, HMS Thistle became the first British submarine to be sunk by the German navy.


I am trying to find better coverage from different sources

The wreckage was found in the spring of 2023, according to a news release, but it wasn't until earlier this week that it could be identified as the HMS Thistle. The discovery was made by Norway's Institute of Marine Research and MAREANO, a program that maps seabeds in the country's waters, while on a routine cruise.
