the explosion was far more likely due to black powder from Type 3 shells in the magazines. Since such an accident can NOT be due to official practice and procedure *cough* Iowa turret explosion*cough* it MUST be due to some scurilous sailor being gay, or suicidal, or nicotine deprived, or some combination of the above. *eye roll* If you read right, I said that it was either someone smoking down there OR deliberate sabotage. Unless you are suggesting that the powder bags just spontanously combust.

The other difference between this and Iowa's case  is that while Iowa suffered from an open breach explosion due to poor maintenance(resulting from having been mothballed before), while Mutsu was not only in active service but also docked.
