This may be a silly question, but if magnets can lift cars, why don’t we use them for underwater recovery? Especially things like shipping containers where the most common metal used is magnetic.
Of course, the problem of finding the vessel still remains.
Your idea is good, not silly. Aspects of it would work, if the dude designing the ludicrous sub had used steel like everyone else does. Magnets are very useful things, useful in a lot of ways.
The guy designed a bad sub, and fired the staff who told him it was a bad sub.
Damn and here I was getting ready for a “these things aren’t normally made with magnetic materials” or some such because, of course, “why didn’t anyone think of this before, I can’t be the first person”… yadda yadda…

And this particular sub is made of carbon fiber and titanium, so non-magnetic.
Thank you, knew it would be silly.
