In case of misunderstanding, the sub is K-278, the big nuclear-armed and nuclear-powered Komsomolets, which was lost at 1680 meters in 1989. It isn't the smaller sub that recently had an accident, also in the Barents Sea, but did not sink.
- Areading314 7y agoI believe the smaller one was called the Kursk
- NedIsakoff 7y agoDifferent sub.
- jlgaddis 7y ago> The Komsomolets sank in the Norwegian Sea in 1989 after a fire on board killed 42 sailors.
- Areading314 7y agoNo, the smaller, more recent one that was mentioned https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kursk_submarine_disaster https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kursk_submarine_disaster
- ceejayoz 7y agoThe Kursk sank. This is the one, I think: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_submarine_Losharik https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_submarine_Losharik
- darkcha0s 7y agoActually, the Kursk sank in 2000 and was quite a bit larger than the sub mentioned in the article. Also the Kursk disaster was deadlier than all aforementioned submarine accidents.
