A wrecked mini-submarine was found last week in waters off of Sweden’s eastern coast, media in Sweden reported on July 27. Authorities believe it is a Russian model, primarily because of Cyrillic letters on the hull. They have not disclosed the exact location of the wreckage, but say it is around 1.5 nautical miles from the Swedish coast.
“We are 110 percent sure that it is within Swedish waters” said Dennis Åsberg, a member of Ocean X Team which made the discovery.
Reports say the sub is some 60 feet long and 10 feet wide, and holds a crew of three to six men.
Since the hatches are unopened, experts believe the crew perished inside the vessel sometime after it crashed.
