I have run this past an old mate of mine who spent his life in USN subs. Here is what he has to say :

“45 meters of water is very thin water, for any nuclear submarine,which would require at least 25 to thirty meters of water simply to cover the boat at periscope depth. No way was a full size nuke submarine involved.

I would check the degree of galvanic action. Remember, this “torpedo” had been supposedly fired only a few weeks ago before it was”found.” At the time of firing, a torpedo is in pristine “new” condition, and suffers from no previous galvanic or oxidation corrosion !

How much galvanic action would one expect in that interval ? And, such galvanic action is susceptible to very precise time measurement in waters of known electrolytic qualities.. If there was galvanic action evidenced at all, I would be surprised, and if there were significant evidence of galvanic activity I would suspect that this was the relic of some torpedo fired in some other place at some earlier time, and it was exposed to underwater corrosion for much longer than the interval cited in the time line of this event.

The very bottom and hard line of this phony scenario presented by the “Official” story neglects one important fact.

That “Joint Fleet” exercise included a number of the US Navy’s finest and foremost anti-Submarine warfare vessels, and no, definitely NO, alien or outside submarine which was not part of that operation would have had a snowball’s chance in hell of ever getting close enough to shoot any of the ships involved in that operation. No way !

And, no friendly or allied submarines would have been participating in exercises in water that shallow, The dangers of being run down are simply too great.

Based on those two ironclad facts, you can dismiss the North Korean or any other submarine attack scenario.
