It doe’s not say how deep of water it is in. I can’t wait to see the pictures.

Many, many moons ago I was training certain maneuvers in a fixed wing prop plane, very low over the ocean.
I spotted what we thought was a wreck on a sandbar, but turned out to be a very, very, small submarine. As in, I doubt it was as big as the one in the story.
I could see tank treads on the bottom, clearly visible from the air (they were on the sides, like a tank). Men were scurrying around on top. They were clearly having some kind of difficulty and were not happy to see me.
We alerted the Navy, and I don’t know what happened after.
I’ve always assumed it was some kind of Soviet submarine, but I’ve looked for versions on line without ever having success.

Reminds me of the premise of a movie from the 80s

The Putinistas will be along soon to denounce Sweden for its aggressive acts against Putin’s peaceful nation.

Supposedly, the Swedes have found ‘tank tread’ tracks on the ocean bottom in their territorial waters. You’ll only need one guess as to who they suspect is responsible.

Triton-2 (project 908) With some details closely resembling the Triton-1, the Triton-2 is a much larger craft. The submarine is not a 'dry sub' but does have a system to maintain a constant pressure within the submarine regardless of depth. "Triton-2" midget submarine, which can carry six combat divers. 13 craft were built, entering service between 1975 and 1985.

I guess the Russians don’t want Sweden joining NATO.

I am wondering how they came across it.. They probably noticed it just before they fired on it and sunk it.
