So many stories of bad design and fuckwittery are surfacing, hard to tell if they are true or made up. So far I've heard...
That only 17 of the 18 bolts on the hatch were secured, as the 18th was hard to reach. That the carbon fibre of the hull was bought cheap from Boeng for being too old to be used on aeroplanes.
That the US navy detected an acoustic noise that would match an implosion. This noise occurred at the same time communications with the sub were lost, which implies, they have been dead for some time, and had been in the sub for less than 2 hours.
