A World War I-era American submarine has been discovered on the sea floor off the coast of Ocean City, Maryland, according to the firm Atlantic Wreck Salvage.
The vessel has yet to be dived and visually identified, but based on side scan sonar data, the location, and the historical record, the team firmly believes it to be the wreckage of the R-8 (S.S. 85), an American submarine dispatched by experimental aerial bomb testing in 1936, a Thursday news release says.
The team that found it, the crew of the D/V Tenacious dive vessel, says the sub had an interesting existence before coming to rest where it was discovered. ....

World War I-era American submarine discovered on ocean floor off Cape May

CAPE MAY â With war looming on the horizon, and a new generation of German U-boats under construction, the United States military faced an urgent problem: how to sink a boat thatâs already underwater?
In August 1936, somewhere off the coast, the American military tested aerial bombardment on R-8, a Navy submarine that had recently been decommissioned.
The bombers missed their target, but four near-misses with 100-pound bombs were enough to send the sub to the bottom.
A salvage team now says they have found it.
Atlantic Wreck Salvage said Thursday they had located the wreck off the coast, roughly between Cape May and Ocean City, Maryland. Searching the waters from their vessel D/V Tenacious this fall, the team used side-scan sonar data to confirm the wreck is the American sub. The sonar system allows the team to get a detailed picture of the wreck, not just a location from above. ....
