In 1984 and 1985, my company carried 220 of these units from Newport News to China. On Nov. 1, 1984, one unit was dropped into the James River after an equipment failure on the ship. No one was injured, so the jokes flew. The wet unit affectionately became known as "Captain Nemo". You can see news reports of the accident here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZxtxuulgavE
