Could have been a jam dive that caused her to get stuck in the mud and they couldn't get her out again with out a big noticeable salvage effort.

But is a part of history now. In 30 years she might be covered in mud and no one then will be able to find out what happened to her. If her crew died with her shouldn't the families learn the fate of them? In Soviet Russia they might not have been told that their submarine was lost at sea to cover up what happened.
Oh and since she was a Soviet sub she might have a couple of nuclear torpedoes aboard. Sub sunk in shallow waters + Nuclear Torpedoes = Tom Clancy Novel.
