"CFIS" x CFIT

Hi,

It seems to me at water is easier to analyze the damage to the many parts. No trees, no elevations, just waves. And the parts remain clean, "washed".
ITOH no "terrain trail". In seabed has not "fidelity" at this depth.

Question:

The high sea waves "config" at impact moment is an important factor for parts damage and crash dynamics? Quite probable "rough seas" at estimated crash location? What kind of waves in ft?

Another consideration: When you crash with same trajectory and heading the destruction is less than at 90 deg.

Always assuming not so high horizontal speed. Letīs say, under 100 KTS
