Does anyone else find this style of verbiage a bit too wordy? "the helium system integrity was breached" and "was no longer able to maintain its structural integrity" is overdoing it, IMHO.
I think there is a more succinct and straightforward, if not completely accurate, summary of events: A strut broke and smashed into the helium system, and released helium pressure blew the tank apart.
