Not wanting to be another person in this thread to go into full on conspiracy mode, but I think that they recovered a bit more of K-129 than is officially let on. Not a full wreck, obviously, but more than is commonly told.
Hi,welcome to the conspiracy mode nutters party.
Unless you can provide solid links (to the recovery of the nukes),particularly ones that are covered under the official secrets act,you will be ,like me,consigned to the fringes.
Welcome aboard!
Oh,and btw,submarines can pick up sounds continents away,yes,thousands of miles,did the nay sayers not know that?
My source is an officer in the RN,aboard an SSN,he is my mates uncle,he says things he shouldn't really.
And the poster (s) that mentioned salinity layers,need to get out of ww2 mode,that ceased to be a factor many years ago,SOSUS amongst others put paid to that.
Things like magnetic anomalies and satellite imagery and the actual displacement of the vessels are all amongst the many factors of submarine detection these days.

Happy Easter to you all.
