Well. Wasa had sunk on its own. Design problems. What about Falken? Again problems with design? What was the reason for it to sink?

Y.T, at the time I have no idea what brought her down. Considering she was smaller with less mast height and slightly wider beam there are speculations there was other factors that brought her down.
The conditions of her are really bad more torn up makes the researcher to believe she went down in a battle.
