I wouldn't worry about it. Finucan and Vendor have already cited sources for the Soviets being willing to overtly go to great lenghts to recover subs lost in Swedish waters. Given that, odds are that the Soviets didn't even know what happened to the sub, regardless of the payload, so my assessment was probably wrong. Sometimes I forget that these are Soviets we're talking about, here.


I had to look that one up, but you're right. Actually, I owe you a "thank you" because I was heretofore all but certain that the Whiskey-class used a smaller-diameter torpedo but I was totally wrong.

Stirred and shaken!:()1:

In order to make a statement like "not" in the data Swedish media announced yesterday and even earlier, on the current U-boat so she is well documented by Swedish authorities, there are several reasons why she is not currently admitted to surface, and the reasons are both political and lacks an initial interest when large parts of the Baltic Sea, consists of this type of u-boats,this is nothing extra ordinary.

"The Navy claims that pictures taken by the measurement company clearly show that the submarine had sunk while being towed (to be scrapped, it is assumed)"

A finnish businessman Jari Komulainen had a deal in the early 90'ies with russians to sell various old soviet boats to be used as museums and such. (The juliett that was used in the K-19 movie for example.)

This boat that was found in 2009 might be the one that was destined to be towed to England to become a museum there, but sunk while underway.

Jari Komulainen is a renowned businessman who has been involved in different projects, everything from movies to various settlements, but that this U-boat would have sunk after a purchase there, I am not likely, the sea is made up of different boats that have gone under.
