Did they find the other 3 crew on the ship? They found one only.
The other 3 could be still out at sea.
Also, looking at the pictures - the torpedo tubes and mistral SAM
launcher are gone as well. Where do they keep the live ammo for the
torpedo tubes and SAM?
Statement by Deputy Prime
Minister and Minister for Defence, Dr Tony Tan
The ship was towed back to Changi Naval Base and lifted so that the
water could be drained. The rescue team gained access to the
compartment where the servicewomen were sleeping. The divers found
one body lodged between the bunks. We need to take further time to
ascertain the location of the other 3 servicewomen. In the
meantime, the search and rescue operation at the scene of the
collision will continue. We have to be prepared for the worst. Our
hearts go out to the families of the 4 servicewomen. The damage is
extensive. Part of the rear of the ship was sheared off, while a
lot of it was compressed. MINDEF, together with the SAF, PCG and
SCDF will spare no effort in this operation.
