their subs don’t even need to do anything to be a threat:

Nice link.
“In 1988, the Soviet hydrographic research ship Keldesh positioned itself over the wreck of K-219, and found the submarine sitting upright on the sandy bottom. It had broken in two aft of the conning tower. Several missile silo hatches had been forced open, and the missiles, along with the nuclear warheads they contained, were gone.”
Is this inferring the US got their ahead of the Soviets and appropriated the missiles? 18,000 feet of water, could that have been done?
Ears will probably turn it over to the EPA. Then they’ll really be in trouble.
VEry interesting post. So what happened to the Russian sub’s nuclear war heads??????????????
I think that K-219 sank because they were experimenting or testing supercavitation torpedos like Jeff Head talked about in his books! Anyone else that has read the books agree?
