On May 14, 2007 at a MARPAC offshore weapons range, 150 km west of Vancouver Island [2], the SINK-EX named exercise Trident Fury 2007 was to see a variety of MARPAC ships and AIRCOM aircraft bombard Huron with artillery, missiles, strafing fire, and finally be sunk by a torpedo launced from a submarine, however, naval gunfire from HMCS Algonquin was all that was required. Ironically, Algonquin's main deck gun was formerly part of Huron's armament, meaning Huron was sunk by one of its own guns.[3] This sinking marked the first Canadian warship to be operationally sunk in Canadian waters.[4]

A navy sonar system that's supposed to defend Canada's sovereignty by guarding against undersea attacks has turned out to be a dog that doesn't hunt. Newly disclosed documents obtained by The Canadian Press show that the $15-million system delivered in 1999 had to be mothballed four years later because of chronic breakdowns.

E pensar que ela foi afundada pela própria peça de vante que está faltando na segunda foto... Um final escalafobético.
