On the bright side China probably had detailed blue-prints back in the 90s.

Thanks in part to Toshiba, which is why my husband states we will NEVER own anything with a Toshiba nameplate.

First the Japanese....now Microsoft....
With friends like these, who needs enemies?
Of course, That plane should have NEVER been allowed in the airspace while the screw was exposed.

The answer here is for the military to better secure their secrets and their airspace, not to condemn Microsoft for providing good coverage in their maps and images.

...being pulled out of the water at the Trident Submarine Base in Bangor, Maine... LOL... I can picture a bunch of terorists running around Maine looking for our subs.
To: Doohickey
I remember we once let the Soviets think they were stealing some secret pipeline software. Turns out it was all a setup and the software was riddled with problems.
Maybe the Navy exposed a bogus screw for the ChiComs and Russians to waste some resources on.

I agree. I don’t expect Microsoft, Google, MapQuest or anyone else to staff defense specialists to vet every aerial photo for classified information.

The image shows an Ohio-class ballistic missile submarine being pulled out of the water at the Trident Submarine Base in Bangor, Maine and displays its propeller in full view. First, that would have to be Bangor, Washington. Secondly, I don't think a mapping aircraft, or any other type of civilian aircraft was allowed to fly over an SSBN base.
Third, the Russians and Chinese have satellites that have revisit times much shorter than the time it takes to dry-dock a submarine.

It was a Casey operation. The sw controllers created a huge explosion, knocking out a key hard-currency source.
