TorwaK Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 I know it's a really sad story and maybe this documentary movie doesn't in real terms, but anyway I suggest you to watch it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5BdJcb3iSg (Part 1) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4d3PvOv1_T8 (Part 2) R.I.P for Kursk ship's crew.

Alfa Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 Tsk.. Torwak - it is a load of conspiracy "hogwash" :) . JJ
TorwaK Posted March 11, 2008 Author Posted March 11, 2008 Alfa it's maybe hogwash maybe not. The thing is on Kursk side of the hull, there is a huge hole which seems like made by a torpedo. Moreover after the hole, head and body are demerged.

p_o_d_2_2 Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 Wouldn't a torpedo have caused more damage than that little hole?
GGTharos Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 A torpedo wouldn't even go for direct impact. It would detonate at some classified distance from the hull to cause 'bubble attachment' and maximize damage. Besides, what business would the USN have sinking that ship? The indentation you see there is made by the bow tearing/shearing off, it's not a penetration hole. EDIT: Oh yeah. Pure hogwash, and embellished, too. There's no way to tell what weapon's loaded in a tube. Nor has Russia presented any evidence that torpedoes were ever launched from one side or the other. Further, the Mk48 is packed with 480kg of high explosive. You'd have to be on drugs to believe that it wouldn't rip the side of that sub open on impact and especially upon penetration when it will crack a destroyer in half.

Vekkinho Posted May 18, 2009 Posted May 18, 2009 I simply don't buy it, it seems like pointing fingers without firm arguments! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
