No!!! Just do this experiment. Take a plastic 2 liter Coke bottle and see how much air pressure you can put in it before it blows (I seem to remember someone actually did this and the cap came off at around 150psi). Now take a similar Coke bottle underwater and see how deep you get before it collapses... virtually no depth at all.

Hi people!
If I pump air inside my sub (unmanned) and it can stand 60 psi without and
damage. Does it mean that it would resist 60 psi from water pressure in the
water (at 120 foot)?
It could be an easy way to test usable deep.
What do you think about that?
