'Royal Oak torpedo' found on seabed


Still Waters

Recommended Posts

A torpedo found on the seabed of Scapa Flow in Orkney "was likely" to have been among those fired at HMS Royal Oak in World War Two.

The British battleship was sunk by German U-boat U47 on 14 October 1939. More than 800 men died in the attack.

A seven metre (22ft) long object found during a routine seabed survey earlier this week has been confirmed as a German torpedo.
