This last week a missing Indonesian submarine was announce to have sunk with 53 sailors on board. The submarine was being use for a torpedo exercise training, but the commanding center suddenly lost trace of the sub. There are few factors that the Indonesian military are ruling in; the subs composite is originally 40 but 53 sailors were squeezed one, secondly the sub may not have had enough oxygen onboard to support the sub and sailors throughout the whole exercise. Either way the announcement of there being no hope of survivors but signs of the sub is a big deal. Evidence of the ship has started to show upon the sea surface and is all in tact, ruling out the possibility that it exploded. As this is a very timely search for the missing sub it has become a multinational effort to find it. Malaysia, US, Australia and Singapore have all lended a hand in helping search for the sub by deploying their own military subs to search.
