Sound described as ‘abnormal, singular, short, violent’ heard on day that contact was lost with ARA San Juan and its 44 crew.
An abnormal sound detected in the South Atlantic Ocean hours after an Argentinian navy submarine sent its last signal last week was “consistent with an explosion”, a navy spokesman has said. Capt Enrique Balbi described the blast as “abnormal, singular, short, violent” and “non-nuclear”. It was detected at 10.31am on 15 November along the route that the ARA San Juan had been following when it last made radio contact three hours earlier. The sound has been pinpointed to within a radius of 78 miles (125km). Six vessels are attempting to locate the submarine, in an area that has already been searched. The explosion was picked up by US sensors and by international agencies responsible for the detection of nuclear explosions around the world, Balbi said. Two Nasa planes were continuing to fly over the area in search of the submarine. https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...-navy-confirms |

I doubt there is any hope for the crew now.
May they rest in peace. |

Will they be able to raise the sub at some point or are they going to be left there?

I guess if its an explosion then they would have been killed instantly....rather that than being stuck down there and slowly running out of oxygen

it depends how deep it was. The greater the depth, the greater the outside pressure and the more catastrophic the damage would be from an explosion

There are a couple of Royal Navy ships down there helping with the search, they've also sent their submarine rescue team. Really sad news if it's the sub that's gone up.
