That might have been it. I remember an article that marked the rough position on a map, which clearly indicated the us subs intend, but I can't find it again. Me mixing up 658/688 is likely for an air head like me.

Recently, I read that it can be estimated that up to 40 collisions happened during the cold war. I'd love to know the exact numbers and get to read some reports but I don't feel like becoming American and joining the DoD today
