INDIA $2.9 BILLION NUCLEAR BALLISTIC MISSILE SUBMARINE FLOODED AND ALMOST SANK AFTER SOMEONE LEFT TH

They really need to step up their safety practices. Imagine this sub diving in the open ocean with that hatch open... Could have been catastrophic!

This is just incompetence of the highest level.

I can imagine just how bad the Indian armed forces are likely to be in combat if this is any indication of the general lack of professionalism.

Indian naval assets are more secure in high seas then on the docks. Just an observation from past accidents and incidents. There is a clear pattern.

There appears to have some missing links in this story. How can you accidentally keep a hatch open when the entire boat needs to be highly automated with instant detection if manual errors??? I'd like to read this incident coupled with the Russian allegation of their "leased" boomer being spied upon in India!!! And, that boat was also damaged in an accident and remains unmovable. Looks like some foul plays here!!! I think there're immense Russian inputs and collaboration for this class of indigenous boats. Meanwhile, Pak is going ahead with sub based nuclear tipped CMs....
