The in-depth story of the Kursk Submarine Disaster.
When it was commissioned in 1994, the nuclear submarine K-141 “Kursk” was one of the most powerful assets of the Russian Navy. The size of two jumbo jets, it was considered impenetrable, indestructible - a deadly predator lurking beneath the surface. In August 2000, for its crew, the mammoth attack sub became nothing more than a steel coffin lying on the bottom of the sea, with no way to escape.

six to eight torpedoes exploded in that front compartment of a sub designed with withstand a torpedo hit.

Since you brought up shuttles, NASA chose not to install escape pods in Challenger and all shuttles due to cost and much criticism has been aimed at NASA over it. And the faulty O rings were known about and NASA was begged not to launch in such cold temps. Secondly, Columbia and the damage to the wing was known about and dismissed in much the same way as concerns over Russian torpedoes. Even afterwards, only the determination of an engineer did the truth come out about the damage tiles falling off shuttles could do and be so severe. NASA ground controllers did tell the crew they had seen it and not to worry. So plenty of similarities with both the US Govt and the Russian.

One slight error, it wasn't the harsh weather that prevented the Russian DSRV's attaching onto Kursk as below 150 feet all effects of a force 9 disappear (as I know from serving in subs for 22 years) so the failure of those DSRV's was down to poor maintenance and shoddy equipment. In fact one of the DSRV's fouled on the wreckage and had to be rescued by the other DSRV.

@moviemaker2011z Год назад

Russian equipment is all shoddy and poor. Russia doesn't really build anything with quality in mind and they also don't do training in the strictest terms. The fact they even have a military with guns that can actually shoot shocks me sometimes.

@elpresidente7569 Год назад

not true, it was down to sea state according to the russians, additionally by the time the russians got the rescue equipment out they had been dead for 20 hours if i remember correctly. atleast 20 hours since any contact was made with the sailors inside.

Those in power in the Russian Navy and Putin have the death of the whole crew of the Kursk on there hands. I remember the day when the Kursk disappeared I was at work here in England when I heard about it on the news on the Radio. I was hoping for those Sailors on the Kursk would be rescued but alas they died including the survivors. I felt heartbroken for those brave Sailors on the Kursk especially for the survivors who eventually perished, I also felt so sorry for the wives, girlfriends, fathers, mothers, brothers and sisters of the dead but most of all for the 71 children who would never see there dad's again. I saw the film called Kursk quiet a few times and it makes you think how brave those who serve on submarines are. It doesn't matter what country they are from, I couldn't do there job on a submarine hundreds of feet below the ocean in a tube. May the crew of the Kursk RIP. 💂‍♂️💂‍♂️💂‍♂️💂‍♂️🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
