Submarine Scorpions Safe But Emergency Blow System Inoperative
Navy captain testifies that the Scorpion was considered safe despite a nonfunctional emergency ballast blow system. The vessel's main ballast blow system was inoperative, limiting depth but not deemed a safety hazard, while court records note repairs by USS Orion and no known structural defects. The inquiry continues into the loss of the $40 million submarine and its 99 crewmen after last contact near the Azores.
