In 2015, Swedish diving group Ocean X Team found the wreck of a foreign mini-submarine off the east coast of Sweden. The Swedish armed forces issued a statement that it was "most likely" a Russian that went down with all hands in 1916. == Find == On 27July 2015, it was reported that a foreign mini-submarine, long and in diameter, had been located the previous week by Swedish diving group Ocean X Team, led by Dennis Åberg.〔 The submarine was found offshore on the east coast of central Sweden. The group had received coordinates for where to search from Icelandic company Ixplorer. According to the divers who found the submarine, it was a modern model and it appeared to be intact, suggesting that the remains of the crew may still be on board. The hull was marked with Cyrillic letters. The pictures from the wreck showed that the yellow〔 submarine was standing on the sea bottom with its tower pointing straight up.〔 The diving group informed the Swedish armed forces on Monday 27July 2015, and video material from the wreckage was handed over for analysis. On 28July 2015, a statement was released by the Swedish armed forces public relations office that stated that analysis of the video footage and other evidence indicated that the wreck was "most likely" that of the Imperial Russian Navy ''Som''-class submarine ''Som'' (''Сом''), lost with all hands on active service in 1916. According to several sources who previously worked with submarine analyses for the Swedish armed forces, the location of the submarine had been known for at least one year. The submarine sank after a collision with the steamship '' Ångermanland'' in the Sea of Åland, somewhere between Arholma and the Svartklubben lighthouse.〔 , the Swedish armed forces considered the wreck to be of historical or marine archaeological interest rather than military, and handed over the case to the Ministry for Foreign Affairs. The ministry consequently informed the Russian embassy in Stockholm. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「2015 Swedish submarine wreck discovery」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
