Operational loss: The most probable. An operational loss is an unfortunate event unrelated to combat. Mechanical failures, incidents caused by human errors, natural disasters and the such. For a submarine these are the most likely scenarios:
Like that time I waas running under time compression, and mistook the standard depth meter for the shallow depth meter.

clicked on 250 meters (well I thought it was 25) one of the few times I'd say its ok to reload your game. :|\

Prein et al learned the hardest way possible that it is most difficult to avoid detection,not to mention depth charges, when,in waters so clear, one's boat can plainly be seen from the surface while over 200 feet down.

A sumbarine is a very complex machine, hundreds of things can be damaged. Even with out being Depth Charged or some type of accident, things do break. And that could of been the case too.
