The Black Sea is huge, even sonar sleds have fairly narrow widths, so it would take a ton of work to find potential wrecks, and you need to visit all of them to determine which ones are modern and which are older. And that's a very long and costly process since it's well below diving level and very dark. You have to send down an ROV which can basically see only a little in front of itself and in a narrow field of view.
