Look people; this aircraft was shot down...it was taken out by a foreign submarine, or fast surface boat...the military were tracking the vessel, and it eluded them...it was am arrogant affront to the military...just a taste of what is/was to follow

FYI - The Iranians have diesel-electric subs and some of them are Russian-built. One of those off of NYC would explain why a Navy destroyer would be in the neighborhood as well. That would be source of the theory that "we possibly shot it down" with a Navy missile.

I wonder if these are the subs you saw that information posted about?

The Kilo-class diesel submarines have an endurance of 7,500 miles without refueling. Where did they refuel on their trip to New York and back?
