I bet the reason there is no further intel on this mysterious launch is they are getting every available SOCOM type with dive experience to the splashdown point to findout WTF happened and to either confirm/deny/gather up the remnants.
Anywone mention my theory? ISI (paki intel) got a container ship close and did a demonstration and privately, through INTEL contacts) let it be known that we should not cozy up with their mortal enemy, India, and cease drone attacks?
I doubt the Paki Navy would have the stones to do this, but there are some die hard Islamofacists within the ISI that openly operates against the wishes of their parent governement.
NORAD is playing stupid. Yea, seriously. No I am not kidding. Thats why we are all wondering WTF is going on.
Meant to copy your posting but goofed. I do agree that there’s great potential that this was a missile fired from a container aboard a cargo ship. Whether that cargo ship was under Pakistani flag or some other enemy of the US, I dunno. There are links earlier in this thread to an article TODAY in the UK’s Daily Telegraph re such a system being offered for sale. (sorry, didn’t catch the number of the posting of that either.)
The Paki navy has nice French designed/built nuke subs with 12 launch tubes each. Ultra quiet engines and cruise range reported to be in the 4,000 mile range. They could do it easily.
