Cold War 2 seems to be arriving in Sweden as well

Looking at the lack of build up on the hull of the mini-sub, it hasn't been on the bottom all that long.  Looks like the Russkies are gonna have some 'splainin to do.

Was that the group that found the supposed "flying saucer" on the bottom of the Baltic a few years back?

Correct.
Just read some more. Some claim the submarine might be from WW1.

1 - if that twit bites his nails one more time and I'm going to smack him up side the head so hard he won't have any fingers left.

2 - it broke loose from its mooring and drifted there.  That's our story and we're sticking to it.

And those bodies inside?  Children who were playing where they should not have been.  It is tragic, but what are you going to do when parents do not properly supervise their children?

stay safe.

Disagree.  That water's C O L D.  stuff doesn't grow that fast.  And that hull design, what I can see of it, is OLD. flat decks ans sharp bows haven't been used on underwater vehicles in a bit.  I'm going to vote for cold war era, lost and never reported about the time our subs were tapping undersea phone lines.

Looking at the video again (buffers like a bugger), it's hard to tell if one is looking at the bow or the front of the superstructure. What can be seen does not remind me of older WWI subs that I have seen pictures of.
In fact, what would a WWI-era sub be doing up that way if it belonged to any of the major combatants?  Did Russia have any at that time?
It still looks too clean to me to have been down very long.  Some of the video appeared to show mats of material, but it was hard to tell what that was as there was no frame of reference, nothing to compare it to.

This one was found last year:

The sub was 20 meters long and three and a half meters wide?  That's roughly 65 feet long and 12 feet wide.  Now, I'm a former grunt, with a touch of claustrophobia, but isn't that awfully narrow for being that long?

There was a Russian sub that was lost in the Baltic during WWI. It was the Fulton type sub built by the Electric Boat Company in US.  It was pretty small, with a crew of 12.

If the writing on it is what I think it is, it might be that one. There is a letter that was a casualty of the Communist language reform, and so would be unlikely to appear on any vessel post-1918.

On the other hand, it's hard to tell from the little bit that's visible.
