Here is a quick and dirty analysis from a US Submariner of 20 years.
It is supposedly, incredibly hard to find defects or damage on carbon fiber. SpaceX did cite this as a reason for using stainless steel. His belief is that there was a hull failure somewhere on the carbon fiber hull; a failure point that simply wasn't found before this dive.
- throw9away6 3y agoIt depends on the material system they used. It is possible to scan for defects just need expensive equipment. Loading and unloading a sub like this could easily result in damages that aren’t detected though
