I am going to guess that it got caught in a fisherman’s net. In the 1980s, a Norwegian fishing ship caught a Soviet submarine the same way. Think about it, whales and dolphins get caught up in nets all of the time and they have very advanced sonar.

Who’s to say it wasn’t done intentionally.

The USN apprently is commanded by a collective of liberal lefties and transgenders who are just “Oh so friendly” to the HOuthis, filing to push the self destruct button on captured advanced ordnance, because the Houthis give them all tingles down their legs to imagine themselves going full astern into the cone of a huge Houthi missile?

WTF?

We are done. China will soon invade Taiwan becwuse the USN has transgenders who will not push the lethality USN ship with all hands.

“”How did this third world country have the know how to capture a US ship?””

Same way an American Lockheed Martin RQ-170 Sentinel unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) was captured by Iranian forces near the city of Kashmar.

Amazing how it landed without any problems, intact, at an iranian airstrip.

A prog was president then as well, little bammy hussein.

Just a coincidence, right?

“Yemeni Navy Captures Advanced American Unmanned Submarine”

One of two possibilities: Either the Russians helped Yemen, or the sub didn’t bother to have a self-destruct capability to prevent it from getting into the wrong hands, as they considered that outcome IMPOSSIBLE.

I’d have to go with the second possibility (arrogance), which is also why Russia is rolling through Ukraine this year.
