USS Harder: WW2 submarine wreck found off Philippines

The wreckage of a US Navy submarine that sank the most Japanese warships during World War Two has been found in the South China Sea, some 80 years after it was sunk by enemy forces.

The USS Harder was found 3,000ft (914m) below water off the Philippines’ northern island of Luzon.

The Harder was sunk in battle on 29 August 1944, along with its crew of 79 men.

Cool article. I just wish they would provide more images of the vessel as it lies and detail what caused the sinking.

It sank because it wasn't better, faster or stronger

USS faster and USS stronger were later additions

Their story would make a good movie sounds like.

They went down taking everything with them.

    This ship sounds like a bad 80s movie sequel

    USS 2: USS HARDER!

    Of course I remember AFTER commenting that the only good sequel with “harder” is also by far the best known one 😄

    Though technically that was only in the tagline of Die Hard 2 rather than the title and it came out in 1990, not the 80s, so I’m still on solid ground here 😁

    you need to have a USS Hard first.

    which vaguely sounds like a soft core porno with a bunch of sweaty sailors.

    I think the full registered name was “USS: Hard 4UBB Attack Sub”
