The status of KRI Nanggala-402 from the sub-missed phase, aka lost contact, is now a subsunk or sinking phase. This phase enhances based on a number of findings during the search process.
A number of fragments of the KRI Nanggala-402 component were found during the search. Starting from the torpedo component parts to the base used by the crew of the KRI Nanggala-402 submarine to pray.
“Some of the last items (at the location) of the dive boat were found which are believed to be parts or components of the submarine. This will not be lifted to the outside if there is no pressure, "said Navy Chief of Staff Admiral Yudo Margono
These items were confirmed to belong to the KRI Nanggala-402 after being checked by an expert, the former crew of the German submarine.
"From the experts, it is believed that the former ABK KRI Nanggala belonged to the KRI Nanggala," he said.
The fragments of this component are suspected to be due to the pressure experienced by the submarine KRI Nanggala-402. KSAL confirmed, this debris occurred because of a crack, not an explosion.
“A rift, not an explosion. If the explosion would have all disappeared, due to gradual cracking in certain parts, when he (KRI Nanggala-402) descended, there were phases starting from a depth of 300-500. There are phases of cracks because if an explosion will definitely be heard, it will not be an explosion but rather a crack, "said KSAL.
