Scary, because America's ASW system is no where near what it was during the cold war and we are ill equipped to deal with such an intensive threat volume

I just ran across an excellent unclassified article about our ASW force:

I was surfing the net the other day and saw a youtube video of a small tsunami that occurred about two weeks ago at Pacific Beach, Wa:

I remembered that was a location of a “NAVFAC”, which was code word for the land based SONAR known as the SOSUS system.

So, I googled navfac pacific beach and that article was in one of the hits.

Not true. The ASW forces are smaller, yes, but capabilities are much greater than during the cold war.
