After 12 years of searching for U-2359, four divers discovered the submarine with its bow pointed directly into the sea floor on a 30 degree angle with the ability to dive under the stern. Suppose one could call this a real nosedive.
The actual location of U-2359 is not public yet.
Position (approx.) 57.29 N, 11.24 E, sunk May 2, 1945, by rockets from British Mosquito aircraft (Sqdn. 143, 235 & 248), Norwegian Mosquito aircraft (Sqdn. 333) and Canadian Mosquito aircraft (RCAF 404). 12 dead (all hands lost).
