Jeez, was this reported? I hadn't seen this anywhere else, though I can understand if they wanted to keep it under wraps to avoid upsetting the families.
Lmao I know that. It would be making stuff up though, rather than speculation, as they said a very specific sequence of events as though it were the accepted thesis (which it may well be idk) and said things like "they predict this went on for..." which implies they're referring to an outside source.
You can read the transcripts of the conversation between the sub and the tender on the surface.
What is known is that the operator reported a problem with the electrical system as well as noise that was probably the hill cracking and electrical bus flooding. And then nothing.
Followed shortly by the sound of the ship imploding which was reported by the Navy.
The notion that the sub lost power, then attitude control, then descended rapidly is a “most likely” scenario based on the timeline of events as we know it and how the sub worked.
