Some important story details missing, but rest assured there's no way a USN, Brit or Australian sub would blindly collide with this type of subsea obstacle.


Uh...google USS Connecticut.

I'm aware of that fiasco, running flank speed in poorly charted waters into a geological subsea seamount. The CO, XO and Chief were all relieved of duty.

The discussion is about Chinese vertical steel submarine traps deployed in the water column.

Did it collide with one of these traps? I thought it was a rock.
