  1. It was literally 200 m from wreck of Titanic and it was known that the sub was trying to go to the Titanic. Finding it there was probably the easiest task ever in trying to find a lost sub. If it had lost propulsion and floated within the currents for 50 km and then imploded, finding the remains would be next to impossible.

  2. Carbon fiber is a poor material for subs because carbon fiber structures have high strength against tension but behave poorly under compression. In case of pressurized airplanes, the body is in tension and carbon fiber makes lots of sense. For a sub, the body is pretty much always under compression which makes carbon fiber really problematic material for building subs.
