But what makes this sub so dangerous is it's engines. They are quiet, like a diesel-electric on batteries, but can stay down a long time, and make long moderately fast runs, without having to surface, like a nuke boat.

So, do you think the author is on to something here?

I agree - if the Chinese wanted to send a message there are very powerful ways to do it without firing missiles that close to our territorial waters, especially without giving warning.

If it was a missile fired by the Chinese (which I don’t think is the case) we need to tell them in no uncertain terms that next time we will have no option but to regard the launch as a nuclear attack on our nation and we will launch 5 ICBMs for every every one of theirs.

Ya gotta love it when people with no military background speculate on military matters.

So, are you some sort of military elitist and the rest of us should STFU and go to the back of the class and let you tell us what to think?

It is snobbish attitudes like yours that this current adminisatration is full of.

Why did you do that? I posted the whole article. Unless someone wants to see the video, they never have to leave FR.

Just curious, because I see you doing that all over the place in different threads.

Are you a moderator?

Does One Vike pay you to pimp his blog or do you do it pro bono?

Have you forgotten who the POTUS is?

Reagan would do that, but sorry, this guy would rather get on his knees and kiss their ass, as he apologizes for the way we made the Chinese build stone walls out West and work as slaves on laying down the tracks for the RailRoad.

No, I found this an thought everyone would like it. I don’t even know who OneVike is.

Why, is his stuff banned here?

Of course not. It's all very amusing. Please keep it up.

The source of the blog you posted is NorCal Blogs not ChicoER.

Are you and OneVike one in the same?

OV’s stuff is not banned here.

Don’t pay any mind to A.A. Cunningham.

He is still hurting over the fact that one of his henchmen was Zotted by Jim himself one day for teaming up against OV and attacking him publicly.

Pay him no mind and he will go away like a fly.

I noticed your new. Welcome to FeeRepublic FRiend.

As you just learned, some conservatives are as bad as the liberals when it comes to thinking they are God.

If they ain’t making someone else’s day miserable then they just ain’t happy.

I took the name of the News Paper that carried the blog.

The Enterprise Record. The same as I do for the NY Times, or any other newspaper. Is that wrong? You never answered my question, are you a moderator?

Oh, by the way. I am not onevike. Why do you have a problem with him. Is Tom Hawks right about you and him?

So are the thousands and thousands of freepers who think it was a missile just as loony?

The dubious sanity of some Freepers would make a worthy discussion topic, but that has nothing to do with whether or not the video showed a missile launch.

Los Angeles-area airspace is very heavily monitored by radar stations. Overlapping radar records from those stations did not reveal a missile launch. That means either that this was a new ultra-stealthy type of missile, or that there was a conspiracy among Los Angeles-area radar operators to conceal the launch, or that the contrail was produced by something other than a missile. The third explanation is by far the most likely.

Ahhh, yet another interesting idea for the missile theorists to tag onto.

Given that these boats are in service with allied or friendly navies,it would be likely the USN has had ample opportunity to study the systems and develop countermeasures.

There was no conspiracy between Los Angeles-area radar operators to conceal a missile launch.

Of course not, they immediately identified the aircraft that was in that airspace at that precise time as it is controlled airspace and all aircraft are tracked. I even think they may have stated who the pilots were and the passenger list. By now we all know the origin, flightpath and destination of that airplane.

One of the major 'nets had it a couple of days ago that the contrail was actually that of a jet passing overhead and pointed out that it was probably an optical illusion that the angle of ascent was so steep so as to be impossible for any jet plane. I thought the explanation sounded suspiciously like the old "the UFO was actually swamp gas" from the old Project Blue Book. But maybe you're right.

Thanks for the welcome.

It seems Mr Cunningham has decided to go away as you implied.

Yours is the first welcome I have received since I started posting here.

It’s nice to be welcomed.

FR’s resident long lived liberal troll, NS, just likes to pretend a lot. Just not the chosen screen name:

Non sequitur (Latin for “it does not follow”), in formal logic, is an argument in which its conclusion does not follow from its premises.[1] In a non sequitur, the conclusion can be either true or false, but the argument is fallacious because there is a disconnection between the premise and the conclusion. All formal fallacies are special cases of non sequitur. The term has special applicability in law, having a formal legal definition. Many types of known non sequitur argument forms have been classified into many different types of logical fallacies.
The term is often used in everyday speech and reasoning to describe a statement in which premise and conclusion are totally unrelated but which is used as if they were. An example might be: “If I buy this cell phone, all people will love me.” However, there is no direct relation between buying a cell phone and the love of all people. This kind of reasoning is often used in advertising to trigger an emotional purchase.

"Did they sell sub propulsion secrets?"

I understood it was secrets AND a CNC milling machine that was required to utilize them.
