A search for an Indonesian submarine that went missing with 53 crew on board continued on Thursday after rescuers found an oil slick and neighboring countries pledged to help.

The 44-year-old submarine, KRI Nanggala-402, was conducting a torpedo drill north of the island of Bali on Wednesday but failed to relay the results as expected, a navy spokesman said.

"Anything more than that can be pretty fatal, dangerous," First Admiral Julius Widjojono told KompasTV. "We operate very different submarines from this one, but the Australian Defense Force ... will work with defense operations in Indonesia to determine what we may be able to do," Payne told ABC radio.
