Looks like it :yep:

Ah Dang! I didn't get to "readed" the post!
:har:

To be honest the actual malfunction that being of the depth gauge I personally think has been blown way out of proportion.
The simple fact it even with this defect the boat continued its mission therefore that tells you in and of itself that it is not a show stopper defect.

This type of defect has happened quite a few times on many different boats in many different countries over the years.

This is why boat have multiple depth gauges of which 3 are in the control room and at least 2 in the engineering spaces (digital and analog)

This news report to me is just sensationalist journalism.

More worrying is the fact a submariner felt the need to talk.

Defects happen all the time at sea, they are duly noted in the engineering and ships log plus its maintinance log so theres always a paper trail too.

i agree. 100%

it is called The Silent Service for a good reason.
