I have yet to see anyone stop at the absurdity of wrapping the hull of a submarine with carbon fiber. These fibers have high tensile strength. In this case, however, high compressive strength is needed from the outside!
The strongest thread won't do it, that would have to be the pressure inside the submarine and not outside.
It's like pulling a string.
Or an analogy with the implosion of a large cistern, which can withstand the great pressure of its contents, but when the air is sucked out of it, collapses due to the mere atmospheric pressure from the outside.
That actually happened here. The hull, solid under pressure from the inside, collapsed after pressure from the outside.
I don't understand. Who invented it?
When used in aircraft wings, the fibers are stressed by tension, which they can withstand perfectly, not by pressure. Similar to steel cables in prestressed concrete bridges. Using them on a submarine is a super stupid idea. Try wrapping a coke can with steel wire. Then try to squeeze it. It will go as easily as if the cable was not there. Another thing would be to pump it from the inside, it would withstand high pressure.

The plastic garden hose is reinforced with strong fibers. Thanks to them, it has great compressive strength from the inside out, but none from the outside, you squeeze it with two fingers!
That's how stupid the Titan submarine is "designed".

@kayrunjaavice1421 I am a qualified engineer. A carbon fiber scuba tank and other uses are stressed by pressure from the inside out and the fibers are stressed by tension, that's OK. When stressed from the outside, the fibers are stressed by pressure, they have no strength, only the epoxy holds the pressure, the tank collapses inward, implodes. Composite materials with carbon fibers crack very quickly, without much warning, no visible deformation, like metals titanium and others. Wrong from the start, wrong choice of material, wrong shape, wrong combination of materials and bad bonding.
Totally inappropriate use of carbon fiber for an externally pressurized vessel, even if 12 out of 10 Boeings recommended it.
