Taiwan's navy is offering a cash reward to any
fisherman who finds a torpedo its sailors lost during a drill last
week, the military said Tuesday.
The offer follows four days of intensive but futile searching in
the area around the Tsoying base in southern Taiwan, the navy said
in a statement.
Any fisherman who snares the German-built SUT torpedo will scoop
30,000 Taiwan (930 US) dollars.
It is the second time submariners aboard the Dutch-made Hai
Lung, or "Sea Dragon" have lost a torpedo. In 2003 the missing
weapon was washed ashore.
