#3 When depth charges are dropped on a sub, the hull rings like a bell, from the inside you can see the hull vibrating 5 inches. Any hull fitting welds can break. In the movies you hear a bang, in real life the next noise is the gas pocket created by the explosion filling with water. I recommend “Red Star Rogue” and “Blind Mans Bluff” for stories about REAL submarines!
