About Savage A2 AJ2 Bomber Wreck

The Savage A2 AJ2 Bomber Wreck is a deep technical aircraft dive outside Subic Bay, where a large post-war naval bomber lies upright on open sand with its fuselage, wings, and tail still easy to recognize. It feels more like a clean blue-water drop onto a solitary aircraft than a bay wreck, with the bomber standing out clearly when conditions cooperate and only limited structural breakup around the rear section and one missing propeller. This is an expert-level trimix objective rather than a general wreck tour. Divers come for the aircraft itself, its rarity, and the chance to inspect a remarkably intact military airframe in open water, while fish life and small growth add life around the metal without turning it into a reef-first dive. The site rewards disciplined descent, stable buoyancy, and tight decompression planning more than exploration range.
