I'm a bit confused after reading that - did the sub surface after everyone died?

Is this the same sub we had a thread about a few weeks ago? The one where the story just kind of died and faded away?
Also, the Chinese put a net under water to fuck with other ships, only to get hung up in it themselves? LOL! |

Quote HistoryQuoted: We had a thread on this a few weeks back after a big OSINT guy tweeted and then retracted his tweet.

I watched marine traffic for a few days but didn't see any notable differences in the area. I think it ended up being further North of there in between China and North Korea. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Good, one less we will have to deal with. No tears here. Reads like they saved the sub but lost half the crew - must have let them asphyxiate in some compartments? They only have about 600 million more screaming chinamen to replace them with. |

I would think it would be a big no-no to mine or booby-trap international waters.
(Whether China overreaches and considers them to not be International waters is not relevant if everyone else says they are.) |

I watched marine traffic for a few days but didn't see any notable differences in the area. I think it ended up being further North of there in between China and North Korea. FWIW they happened to also be frantically searching for a submarine right around the time they would have realized the rumored lost one was missing. Seems to have been unannounced, they said afterwards it was an exercise. Reuters BEIJING, Aug 31 (Reuters) - China's military said it had recently held intensive anti-submarine exercises in the strategically important South China Sea as part of efforts to hone its capabilities amid rising maritime tensions with its neighbours and their allies. In an undisclosed area in the South China Sea, more than a dozen flights of anti-submarine patrol aircraft operated non-stop for more than 40 hours searching for submarines and simulating attacks, the Southern Command Theatre of China's People's Liberation Army said in a statement on Monday. |

google says it has a crew compliment of 100 - but hard to say if that is how many were actually onboard. Sad to see waste of life - but the sub appears to have been salvaged, presumably with little damage. I assume China has plenty of replacement personnel.

If it's a chain, it likely clinks. Or they could bust out the HF sonar for mine detection. Which can be heard by others. That shallow, would a blue/green LIDAR work? |

The article says “22 officers, 7 officer cadets, 9 petty officers, 17 sailors.”
That sounds like a weird crew compliment, VERY too heavy. Can any navy guys say if this is similar in our navy? |

Chinese doesn't really recognize any treaties- ex. see also their fishing fleet which ought to be sunk in its entirety, along with the crews and their escort vessels. |
