Submarine Accidents

Submarine accidents refer to incidents involving submarines that lead to damage, loss of life, or sinking. These accidents can occur due to various reasons, including mechanical failures, human error, collisions with other vessels or underwater objects, and accidents during training or combat missions. Notable examples include the sinking of the USS Thresher in 1963 and the Russian K-129 in 1968, both resulting in significant loss of life. Submarine accidents highlight the challenges and risks of operating in deep underwater environments, where rescue operations can be complex and resource-intensive.
