Yes. The use of the word “terrorized” is exaggerated, and overwrought. But I guess it sells.

i really don't know, if we were using active SONAR yeah, if we weren't, who knows, DE's are hard to detect and the USN didn't say they knew it was there and sure took a LOT of sh!t for it too... unless you shadow a DE from port for it's whole run, they are damn hard to find once they go deep
according to the Navy... With terrorism the new global threat, a network of radio antennas that let the Navy maintain secure communications with submarines at sea has become yet another Cold War relic.
On Thursday, the Navy will shut off its extremely low frequency radio transmitters in northern Wisconsin and Michigan, saying the 15-year-old system, first proposed in the 1960s, is outdated and no longer needed.
lets put it this way, the leftists that wanted it shut down no longer picks up the ELF signal... it's doesn't take rocket science to pick the ELF signal even if you can't decode it and as far as they are concerned it's no longer in operation question: just exactly what is you source that we can track every submarine in the world over 25'
enquiring minds want to know...
