It has been reported that the sound of the explosion of the Titanic tourist submersible ‘Titan’, which was missing in the deep North Atlantic Ocean, is likely to be a top-secret underwater surveillance system built by the United States during the Cold War.

According to the Wall Street Journal, the United States, which developed a long-range sonar system for reconnaissance of German submarines during World War II, has equipped an acoustic surveillance system by attaching hydrophones to the seabed to detect Soviet nuclear submarines in the early Cold War. .

The system picked up sounds believed to have been generated by the ‘Titan’ imploding’, which helped authorities narrow down the search, the newspaper said.

However, whether this system was actually used this time is expected to be officially confirmed only when the secret is released in the distant future.
