Man is given for scale. Must be one very large torpedo if I must so say, that was sitting in water for quite some time too.

Default screw-up (see what I did there??

Well I assumed it had sunk! I guessed (wrong) and then Googled "recovered Russian submarines". When I saw this I copied it without checking the details first.

u crank's the one who named it, so you decide who gets the teddy bear...

Should have been scrapping. I was tryin' to get it in before someone else. I'm a really slow typist. Eichhornchen still beat me.
