Ah ok.Well they addressed that theory in the show I watched, theory was the low order detonation caused the hatch to blow and flooded the bow I believe, but they said the bow was in too good of condition for that or for a large explosion.
The evidence seems to point to them.Also consider the time, still at the height of the Cold War, had info from a spy about Scorpions location so as said motive, means, and opportunity.Maybe my legal mind but its the way i see it based on the evidence.Does this prove anything beyond a reasonable doubt? No.
Sad thing is, the government knows the truth but has not told it yet.Most of the files are still classified, perhaps one day we will know.
