Lawmaker, "N. Korea's SDV may be Responsible for Cheonan's Sinking"
(Seoul=Yonhap News) Kim Jung-eun = Park Sun-young, a Liberty Forward Party's legislator at National Assembly, claimed on Apr. 7 that 'it is very high in probability that Cheonan's sinking is a work of N. Korea's 3-man naval commando team using SDV(Seal Delivery Vehicle.)'
In a telephone conversation with Yonhap News, she said, "I was told about this by multiple intelligence sources."
She said, "SDV is an underwater attack vehicle pioneered(?) by N. Korea and it is the most stealthy pinpoint naval infiltration vehicle. Its frame is in plastic and it is only 6~7 meter long, which makes it able to evade radar detection and difficult to spot with naked eyes because it looks like a trash floating around on the sea."
She claimed, "If the Shark class mini-sub, which had disappeared since the day before the sinking, moved close to NLL and deployed 3-man SDV team, the team could reach the target in 10 minutes moving at 40~50 knots, and carry out the operation while breathing from their oxygen tanks."
She added, "SDV team is likely to have used homing or oxygen(?) torpedo(es) but we cannot rule out the possibility that they could have used modified depth charges, or bottom mines, considering that (two) explosions occurred 3~5 seconds apart according to survivors' accounts."
