why do some countries navies prefer to sink old ships instead of scrap them?
In: Other
Destroying something is often more expensive than building it and the industry is far less robust on that side too. There is no incentive either since you make nowhere near as much money destroying as you do for building. So they’re used for exercises/training, then as target practice and once sunk they provide a decent artificial reef for wildlife, if they’ve been properly cleaned of harmful materials.
