Yawn...
SOP
Real question is “who” in the military or DOD pointed out (leaked?) this to the press...

The OP pushes “The Rapture”.
It’s not news.

Um, nobody had to. This sort of thing is normally detected on modern private satellite imagery and through air traffic control. FlightAware.com, if nothing else.

Seems like overkill.

Lot of wishful thinking going on in the swamp. I wouldn;t be surprised that after it’s all over Trump and Melania had tested “false positive”!

Yawn indeed - TACAMO is always up there. They were flying the C-130Q when I was at Barbers Point HI in the early 1980’s - think they also had a squadron in MD. Supposedly always 2 in the sky at all times, I know they were back then.

I’m not going thru all my Navy records to find when exactly I was in VQ-3 (in the 70’s I’m sure).

VQ-3 was in Guam at that time. We had 4 EC130-Qs in our squadron ... there was never 4 parked on the ramp anytime. One was always gone. I was an E-5, made E-6 there and was flight crew. Operated the trailing wire antenna to talk to XXXX and does anybody know long the trailing wire antenna was? 10 points and a brew if you do.

Hell, I might even throw in a Big Mack.

They both were in the air for a previously scheduled exercised. They didn’t launch after the announcement.

I don’t win.
Looked it up out of interest and it said that it had up to 31 “long trailing wire” antennas to communicate with submarines by VLF (now VERDIN).

One line said still classified about one item-—I wonder if Sen. Diane Feinstein’s limo driver Chicom spy could fill us in. Or maybe Schiff’s barber heard him blabbing about it./s
