Default Remains of the Kursk

Parts of the Kursk in dry dock. Not pretty.

No not pretty.

When you see those people walking inside the hull, it really shows how big it was.

Thanks for the heads up

How did you find those? I had found some similar pictures shortly after it had been recovered, but I was unable to find them again.
Thanks

What happened to the Kursk after it was salvaged? Has it been scrapped? or, is it still being investigated?
