Titan gate - Self implosion or torpedoes?

A deep-sea submersible carrying five people on a voyage to the century-old wreck of the Titanic was found in pieces from a "catastrophic implosion" that killed everyone aboard, the US Coast Guard said on Thursday (Jun 22), ending a multinational five-day search for the vessel.

The Titan, operated by the US-based company OceanGate Expeditions, had been missing since it lost contact with its surface support ship on Sunday morning about an hour, 45 minutes into what should have been a two-hour dive to the world's most famous shipwreck.

Five major fragments of the 6.7m Titan were located in the debris field left from its disintegration, including the vessel's tail cone and two sections of the pressure hull, Coast Guard officials said. No mention was made of whether human remains were sighted.

"The debris field here is consistent with a catastrophic implosion of the vehicle," Mauger said.  CNA

The first report by the Americans, the Titan imploded. Is this the truth? The vessel must have gone through many pre flight test before diving. It had made many trips to the wreck before. How so that it imploded just like that?

Could it be a mistaken identity, an unknown suspect, maybe a hostile submarine. So someone miscalculated and fired a torpedo to break it up into pieces? Can an implosion resulted in piece lying around? Or these are caused by the impact of an explosive like the Nord Stream pipelines?

How did the Americans know that there was an implosion when everyone did not know and were hunting and hoping to save it? Why did  the Americans stop the British from sending out their search vessels before this announcement? Why preventing other vessels to help in the search and rescue? Did they have prior knowledge of what had already happened, did not want anyone to find out the truth? No one is to be there to discover what really happened?

'The US Coast Guard has found a piece of a deep-sea submersible in a “debris field” near the sunken wreck of the Titanic. The vessel’s five passengers all died in a “catastrophic explosion,” the military branch said.

“A debris field was discovered within the search area by [a Remotely Operated Vehicle] near the Titanic,” the Coast Guard’s northeastern district said in a statement on Thursday." RT

How could an implosion cause a "debris field" when the forces were turned inwards? An implosion and the extremely high pressure at that depth would not force the parts to be blown around. A "debris field" is likely to be caused by an external impact from an explosion, not an implosion.
