KRI Nanggala-402 in better days<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

We were talking about the KRI Nanggala-402 in the Weekend Open Thread, but the Indonesian Navy has announced that their earlier reported suspicions that the ship was lost have been confirmed. Wreckage, including large parts of the ship, have been located by remotely operated vehicle. Of the 53 souls aboard, none survived. Hauntingly, some of the survival suits normally stored in boxes were found in the open, suggesting the crew attempted to put them on.<\/p>\n

Navy Times reports<\/a>;<\/p>\n

Indonesia\u2019s military on Sunday officially said all 53 crew members from a submarine that sank and broke apart last week are dead, and that search teams had located the vessel\u2019s wreckage on the ocean floor.<\/p>\n

The grim announcement comes a day after Indonesia said the submarine was considered sunk, not merely missing, but did not explicitly say whether the crew was dead. Officials had also said the KRI Nanggala 402?s oxygen supply would have run out early Saturday, three days after the vessel went missing off the resort island of Bali.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe received underwater pictures that are confirmed as the parts of the submarine, including its rear vertical rudder, anchors, outer pressure body, embossed dive rudder and other ship parts,\u201d military chief Hadi Tjahjanto told reporters in Bali on Sunday.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith this authentic evidence, we can declare that KRI Nanggala 402 has sunk and all the crew members are dead,\u201d Tjahjanto said.<\/p>\n

An underwater robot equipped with cameras found the lost submarine lying in at least three pieces on the ocean floor at a depth of 838 meters (2,750 feet), said Adm. Yudo Margono, the navy\u2019s chief of staff.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s much deeper than the KRI Nanggala 402?s collapse depth of 200 meters (655 feet), at which point water pressure would be greater than the hull could withstand, according to earlier navy statements.<\/p>\n

Margono said emergency survival suits that are normally kept in boxes were found floating underwater, apparently indicated the crew may have tried to put them on during the emergency.<\/p>\n

The cause of the submarine\u2019s sinking remains uncertain. The navy had previously said an electrical failure could have left the submarine unable to execute emergency procedures to resurface.<\/p>\n

The wreckage is located 1,500 meters (yards) to the south of the site where the submarine last dove Wednesday, off Bali\u2019s northern coast, Margono said. Photos of the debris were presented at the press conference.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
