I suppose the reason that they didn't call it when they heard the implosion sounds on the navy listening devices was that it wasn't conclusive enough to end a search & rescue (or recovery) operation. It would be irresponsible and also a very bad look to quit searching before having concrete evidence such as debris even with strong circumstantial evidence that the vessel imploded early on. And even then, if they had concluded that the sub had imploded right around when they lost contact, searching for remains of the sub would still be important to do from a public perception standpoint that we don't give up on lost mariners until they're rescued or absolutely sure they're lost.

Potentially, someone should've told Lockheed Martin there were things to bomb down there. I don't know a huge amount about carbon fibre, but I feel like performance at extreme depths was more suited to steel or titanium?

Immediately after the Titanic sank a bunch of rich relatives got together and came up with a plan to drop depth charges onto the wreck to make all the rich guys bodies float to the surface.

Lusty Grundles posted:Potentially, someone should've told Lockheed Martin there were things to bomb down there. Carbon Fiber is tough as hell for its relative weight, but its failure mode is basically "do nothing, then shatter into splinters". Planes and other poo poo that needs to be light can make good use of carbon fiber, I literally don't understand why it was used in place of better metals in this sub. It was probably cheaper to custom make a carbon fiber tube that had a compressive strength of a given level, and they decided "eh gently caress it". It was just a poorly designed death trap from the start.
