sent ships and aircraft to search for the USS San JuanI thought our modern subs couldn't be detected by surface ships and aircraft. So much for stealthy design.

He gets this piece of Pavarotti...
Paganini.
Whatever.
Paganini.
This is my story, OK?
Tell it right.
Pavarotti's a tenor.
Paganini was a composer.

"I think it's unwise to announce such things....
If it was caused by someone testing "blocking" equipment -- it gave them some useful and perhaps dangerous information....."
Of course, OPSEC is paramount, but if this was a test the Navy would not be out looking for these guys and calling in rescue teams.

They didnt say they detected the sub they just reestablished contact. That could have come from the sub.

Agreed. Our Military needs to remember that "Loose lips sink ships."

The "someone" I was referring to had a Koran nearby, or Mao's little Red Book.
Not OUR guys..

A torpedo or two should resolve that issue.

I read that damned book 8 times and am past counting the times that I saw the movie...
When I was in the Navy I was at SUBBASE Pearl Harbor (I know, tough duty) and worked on the 688 LA class so I was completely enamoured of all things sub. This was early eighties so we had to have quarterly Soviet Readiness Training...most people grumbled...I loved it!

Wildfire? Sounds like someone read the book and decided to give it a dry run.
