I doubt it was a Navy test. I am not aware of any missile test ranges off the East Coast, except Wallop’s Island and that’s hundreds of miles away. If a Navy cruiser had shot down a Civilian air liner hundreds of sailors would know, and many would have talked. My money is on the Iranians using SAMs either from a sub or a freighter.

Not necessarily. Trust me on this. And what about...
Dahlgren, Va. and Dam Neck? If it was an SM2 test, hundreds of miles would be irrelevant.
You remember Michael Rivero? I know you do.
In the fwiw department, I can't say one way or another, but the center fuel tank explanation is akin to a unicorn shitting skittles.

Or from a “pleasure boat” as part of an arms deal?
