Everyone knows it was USS Memphis, not a Brit sub, that sank Kursk

odd i cant remember hearing about the loss of a trafalgar, they dont stay at sea that long. iam sure something would have been mentioned if 130 sailors failed to turn up or if a pretty sizable ship had gone missing.

i believe they are all accounted for as most were having reactors checked at the time following the tireless incident.

il be sure to phone the navy and get them to double check the fleet and make sure none are missing.

If you want a good book about the Kursk disaster and well written with no jingoism get "Kusrk : a Time to Die" by Robert Moore. Well written and a good read too.

The torpedo failure is the most probable cause of the accident but always is open the probability of a external collision.

here some damage after raise the sub to the surface
