If it was a car found in a lake I’d say insurance fraud.

Abbott studied WWII records, scoured the area, and eventually found the machine—which once had been part of a 30-vehicle operation to build a temporary dam. But in 1947, the Buffalo was washed away along with 14 other vehicles in a flood, and has been missing ever since.

My initial guess would be that that area was once swampy or subject to a great amount of rainfall. Coupled with the weight of the buffalo, it might've just sunk.

I asked myself the same question.

Negative erosion.
Reminded me of a soil conservation study in the 30’s. By plowing so that the plow threw the dirt up hill, they created negative erosion. The practice never caught on.

On purpose and with a bulldozer.
