Armed Forces completely rejects the existence of an abusive submarine in the inlet to Stockholm last autumn. Instead of a 20-30 m long, black, submarine witnesses seen, there was a tiometers white plastic boat. But the defense has not spoken with plastic boat’s skipper and the naval officer who blew the whistle says: “It is absolutely impossible that I have taken so wrong.”
Armed Forces completely rejects the existence of an abusive submarine in the inlet to Stockholm last autumn. Instead of a 20-30 m long, black, submarine witnesses seen, there was a tiometers white plastic boat. But the defense has not spoken with plastic boat’s skipper and the naval officer who blew the whistle says: “It is absolutely impossible that I have taken so wrong.”
The Daily News was able to January 11 reveal that the defense one week after the submarine The search called off last fall chased a submarine in Stockholm inlet. It was October 31 as the retired naval officer Sven-Olof Kviman saw a suspected submarine outside Lidingö on the way to Stockholm. After his alarm was corvette “HMS Malmö” into the inlet to Stockholm and staff peered from the beaches, however.
On January 12, could DN publish a photo taken by Kviman. The Armed Forces have now analyzed the image and vessel movements in the area at the time. Last Wednesday reported the Armed Forces to the Government that what the photograph looks like a submarine would in fact be a civilian workboat.
Ad:
– The analysis has shown that photograph that was taken in Stockholm inner archipelago was a smaller boat, confirms Rear Admiral Anders Grenstad, Armed Forces Deputy Director of Operations for DN.
Thus, classified sighting down from Class 2, possible submarine to class 5, non submarine. The defense has instead come to the conclusion that the photo shows the boat “Time Bandit”. It is 10.5 meters long in white plastic. According to the Navy’s tactical team, section M2, so would this boat behind and with backwash match the contour of the suspected submarine tower in the photograph.
DN three times talked to the captain who drove “Time Bandit” the current day on the way to Stockholm. He says he’s never been contacted by the defense.
– The Navy has not spoken with me. My boat see in the picture – but not where the defense says that it exists, but further away, says skipper DN.
Sven-Olof Kviman who sounded the alarm participated in submarine hunts in the 1980s and 90s. He saw the suspected submarine in binoculars for several minutes. DN can today for the first time publish a drawing Kviman done by what he saw.
– It is absolutely impossible that we have seen wrong, then both the wife and I color blind. “Time Bandit” of 10 meters has a completely different size than submarine. I saw the submarine in the water mode: rounding at the bow and stern and the tower. It is always difficult to determine the size but it was about 20-30 feet long.
The defense also dismisses second testimony by Frantisek Zvrskovec who was at sea in the area and saw a submarine minutes after Kviman. It considers the defense that, although he saw a submarine. But according to the naval tactical headquarters would Frantisek Zvrskovec and his adult son have taken the wrong day. Frantisek Zvrskovec dismisses this completely and his son tweeted on Sunday evening: “believe my father tell the difference between a submarine and a plastic boat.”
However, the defense completely safe in a secure tort, class 1, occurred during the first submarine reconnaissance on October 17 to 24.
– The assessment of Swedish territory was violated in October 2014 remains in its entirety, said Rear Admiral Anders Grenstad DN.
