Is the cold war really over?

Well, okay. What I really want to ask is if the USN was still conducting missile partols up to the internationally-recognized 3-mile limit of territorial waters. I am sure that you cannot tell me that, though.

To that I'll say the Federation of American Scientists lists the range of a Trident II missile in excess of 4k NM. Also I'm not a Golden Dragon.

Aside from that, were you SubLant or SubPac?

SubPac, Group 9, Squadron 17

And is the GIUK Gap still an epicenter of submarine ops like it was in the 70's and 80?

Not being in the Lant or on a fast attack I really couldn't say, but I don't see why that would change any.

Here at Cape Canaveral Fl ,I was wondering why, I was seeing more P-3s up , almost daily now after along time lull.

Ahhh. Thanks ETR.

I am always envious of real bubbleheads.

I fully agree with what you can say and not say, when I myself am involved in similar things.

It's just routine in my opinion. As what can be expected since Russia isn't exactly allied with the US or UK in particular but saying it a new cold war ...well it just would not make perfect sense. Russia is no Soviet Union in strength and in political agenda.

The Akula skipper lost the game as he let his boat signature to be recorded by the Trafalgar. So we can surmise Trafalgar is still cutting age!

This sounds like a new DW scenario . . .

I'd worry more about China especially after the next 2 decades.
