Chinese Submarine was not the first on US coast

Sneaking subs into waters off the west coast — its happened before
By Wayne Madsen
The firing of a submarine-launched ballistic missile by a Chinese Jin-class submarine off the coast of southern California last Monday at the height of evening rush hour in Los Angeles was not the first time the U.S. Navy's anti-submarine warfare sensors in the Pacific have failed.
In 1981, a Soviet Victor-class nuclear submarine successfully evaded the Navy's Sound Surveillance System (SOSUS) network of underwater hydrophones, Towed Array Sensor System (TASS) ships, and P-3 sonobuoy-equipped aircraft and popped up off the Oregon coast alongside a Soviet fishing fishing trawler.
While serving as the Operations Officer at the Navy's SOSUS station at Coos Head, Oregon, this editor received a phone call from the Coast Guard station in Brookings, Oregon reporting that some local fishermen sighted a Soviet submarine alongside a fishing trawler flying the Soviet flag some 30 miles off Brookings.
The incident resulted in the sending of a "Bravo" visual sighting on a Navy-Wide Formatted Message Reporting System (RAINFORM) message to the Commander Oceanographic System Pacific (COMOCEANSYSPAC) in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. Since the clear majority of Soviet submarine contact reports were SOSUS RED messages, meaning they submarine had been detected by the SOSUS acoustic arrays, the sending of a BRAVO visual sighting message to the Navy's top commands in Pearl Harbor created a political storm.
The Navy's higher-ups immediately began to question the veracity of the Oregon fishermen and the Coast Guard in an effort to limit the damage. The reaction by the Navy was similar to the cover story now being issued by the Pentagon that the missile plume witnessed some 35 miles off the California coast was actually from a US Airways flight from Honolulu to Phoenix, a model rocket, or an optical illusion.
In 1981, a Victor-III Soviet nuclear attack submarine, armed with torpedos and anti-ship missiles, popped up previously undetected some 30 miles off the Oregon coast. The submarine had undergone significant noise-reduction modifications, with its turbine and propeller cavitation being quieted to avoid detection by U.S. Navy acoustic sensors in the Pacific. The Navy, embarrassed, covered up the incident.
The Navy, clearly embarrassed over the undetected presence of a Chinese Jin-class SSBN submarine off the coast of Los Angeles, is, some 40 years after the Victor-III incident, continuing its age-old tradition of covering up when it screws up. Aiding and abetting the Pentagon are a group of recently-minted "experts" from NASA, the Discovery Channel Rupert Murdoch's array of claptrap publications, Pentagon-funded web sites and think tanks, and other "usual suspects" in the conspiracy theory proffering business.
The Pentagon, shown to have wasted billions of dollars on a useless ballistic missile defense system, is working overtime with the media and on the Internet to cover up the latest debacle. However, even some reporters who cover the Pentagon full-time are beginning to question the Pentagon's version of events last Monday night over the skies west of Los Angeles.

What is the real issue here? I am sure we have our ships along foreign coasts all the time. The rift between China & the U.S. is only going to become worse as the currency crisis continues.

What is the real issue here? Are you kidding me? We might have US subs off the coast of other countrys but we are not firing missles. This is, in my opinion, is just short of an act of war! Do you think if the US fired a missle so close to Russia or China's coast they would say, "What is the real issue here?" China just tested us, and our wonderful government is so weak due to our inept leadership, we failed. May God help us!

The issue is that this was a "shot across the bow". It was intended as a warning that; "We now have the tecnology to defeat your early warning systems and close to any firing position we choose at will, and fire if we have to". In other words, your strategic advantage is now toast.

chinese and russian subs are welcome anytime on US seas. . . come to think of if any of those sub fired missiles and targeted on a us soil, china and russia better pray hard for they are very toasted. . .show of power is nonsense to the US navy fleets scattered and lurking every continent. . .why would they acknowledge if chinse or russian subs are in US waters. . .better yet the other way around. . .they've detected those subs at the first place, and they navy fleets just let them swim by and meet free willy. . .if they'd become a rude guest, guess what, they'd be another tin can at the bottom of the ocean. . .

True but have we ever gone into someones coast and then lobbed a missle backwards into the sea? The reason I believe this story is because the MSM is telling us we dare not believe it. Thus I do believe it is true. Sure they could hit us from far away, "IF" they wanted to attack us. This was just a warning of sorts, to say see? We slipped under your radar and then lobbed a missle back into the pacific to show you we could do it. Jut like in 1981 with the Russian Sub, It was just to prove and to show us it could be done. Of course the Pentagram is saying they know nothing, its because they dare not admit it. For then it would like admiting All sheilds down scotty. The thing is the Pentagram and Norad and the whole shootin match probably didnt know who it was till after the missle was shot. its no plane my friends many people with military backgrounds with missles say it is a missle. China busted our radar plain and simple thats the answer.

Hogwash. China couldn't survive with out the United States. We're the only country in the world willing to pay billions of dollars for their poorly made crap. Without us, they're economy would fall apart. That's why they put so much into financial system. They depend on us more than we do them. Look at the facts. They wouldn't fire a missile next to our coast. That's a completely ridiculous argument. No how, no way. They'd already be toast.

You have to be kidding China is the factory of the world & also controls one of the world's most precious minerals. Travel to any country in the world & you see Chinese made products the quality of their electronics is getting better. Give it a few years & they will make first rate cars like Korea now does. Be honest you are paying for their products with an over valued dollar which could collapse in a few years. The British pound was the No.1 currency until the US $ took over this will probably change in the near future?

O.K genius state your FACTS how are they junk? Korean cars are sold world wide, in addition Korea is a major producer of quality electronics, shipping etc. Many major vehicle makers including GM re-badge Korean made cars. You sound like one of those people who said in the 1940's that Japanese can't make planes and their solidiers are "near sighted". The day will come when both China & India will make world class cars too! The ability to make cars etc. isn' t genetic it's intelligence & both Chinese/ Indian & Koreas students shine in Western Universities.

Great, with this crap is starting-up we have a whimp-ass in the White House. They wanted this warning shot to be seen…didn't launch at night, but when the sun was just starting to set for maximum effect and they leave under cover of night fall. You must be right dude, it was just a 767 contrail…go back to sleep, everything is fine. Pay no attention to that missile behind the curtain. Also pay no attention to the EMP attack against the Carnival Splendor…must have just been caused by swamp gas. Ignorance is bliss…just give me my football, beer and any other crap to keep my mind focused on the things in life that really matter. Missile, shmissile…China does make crappy products…and we keep buying that same crap. WELCOME TO WAL-MART and ultimate bliss!!!!

What's fascinating to me (symbolically speaking) is the video clip showing the billowing contrail infused with the color of the setting sun – hence Red China's rise in the dusk and twilight of America's demise.
Woe to America! The mystery babylon(don) has fallen. And analogous to the Titanic: She's sinking!

When is the last time you've seen a jet create a contrail at sea level or 5,000 ft. It doesn't happen…don't listen to the disinformation agents out there saying its an optical illusion and the jet is actually getting closer to the camera…yea, and pull this leg and it plays jingle bells. That's a frigg'in ICBM class missile. 90% its China, 10% its Russia.

I have seen them rise from the horizon. The man who filmed it said he did for 10 minutes. ICBM's don't travel that slow maaannnn.
Daniel 2017
16. Nov, 2010
See what you want to see.
Just because the contrail is still visible doesn’t mean the missile is still there. Secondly, the missile is traveling away, and up into the horizon, and therefore even at 12k mph, the contrail is going to be visible for a very long distance.
At ICBM altitude (+500 miles) an object is in line of sight for thousands of miles. If the object traverses beyond the horizon in ten minutes at that altitude, it would positively be traveling in excess of 12,000 mph. Clearly this would be an ICBM and nothing else.

Ok folks, how about someone get a video of the space shuttle launch, compare that launch with the trail left by the ICBM shot off LA. Bet you will see similarities in the contrails, as well as similarities in the speed of accent, at distances speed apears to slow. Ever watch a Indy Race? Do the cars really look like they are doing nearly 200 miles per hour? Think Logically folks, or at least for God's sake start thinking at all.

That had to be a missle. I live in New York and jets are overhead all of the time. Many of them spew out chemtrails, but most are from the 3 airports in the area. It ws too massive to be either a contrail or chemtrail. My opinion is that it was a missle. A Chinese missle most likely. The surfacing of the sub and this missle is China's way of saying." You are in our backyard, so we will play in yours." They are trying to make a point.

I think someone is helping the leading to change attention to something else and someone else who is pity like poor China which is blamed all the time for no reason. I think it is not right to blame other people to resolve problems of our own. It is apparently self-firing! Poor China has no power to do this!

"Finally there is something that has occurred, in which I am actually an expert and qualified to give a real answer about. I am a retired U.S. Navy FireControl Technician, who is platform certified in the gun and missile systems on board Adams class guided missile destroyers, I have also worked with the Navy's Harpoon, Tomahawk and ASROC missile systems. (FireControl Techs operate, maintain and repair the computer, radar and periphial systems used to launch and guide the various naval weapon systems, we are the guys who "PUSH THE BUTTON").
Anyway, what I saw in the recent video concerning the object 30 miles off the coast of CA. Is blatantly a foreign made, Large Cruise or ICBM missile, being launched by a sub-surface aquatic platform.
First, I know it's a large missile because it did not exhibit the typical "corkscrewing" trajectory of a beam riding missile as it trys to aquire the targeting beam. This tells me its a Big Boy with a complete guidence system installed in it, what is nicknamed a "fire and forget" missile, as once its launched its internal guidance system takes over and there is no real need for external guidance.
Second, I'm fairly confident it's not one of ours, as the vapor trail appears "dirty" it looks brownish.
I have personally been involved in (5) SM2 missile launches, and (2) ASROC missile launches, and have been on safety observation for at least 15 more launches of Harpoons, Tomahawks and other missiles. We put alot of sweat and money into our "birds" and part of that is the fuel cells, they burn very clean, a whitish-blue infact, not a dirty blackish brown. That missile had rather crude fuel cells, which tells me its not one of ours.
I bet the brass in Washington is freaked out big time, because of what I know of our "defenses" they should really have had a pretty good idea this thing was sitting there, and they should have been watching it, not only that the moment it broke the surface of the water and ignited our early warning dopplar should have picked it up, and relayed the info to NORAD, and the CAP units flying patrol over the country… Any high ranking expert who believes this is a condensation trail off of a commercial airliner is lying or stupid. I hope you hear from other Fire Control Techs who saw the same thing I did."

No, Sean Hanrahan, what we see is that billions of dollars spent don't actually protect you, what like they didn't protect you on 9/11. Obama hasn't cut defense spending significantly even though there are billions of easy savings that would not affect actual security at all. Bush increased non-war defense spending and guess what? He couldn't buy the ability to actually detect nuclear subs. Yet again government is useless and the military especially so.

All that "High-Tech Security Hardware" reminds me of the French relying upon their "invincible" Maginot Line in WWII. AND, don't forget that all that stuff FAILED utterly and during 9-11 with the military's Pentagon Home Base being hit even with 4 hours warning.
Talk about a zillion dollar boondoggle — only idiots believe that all that stuff will work when needed. If a couple of third world cave dwellers can defeat it what do you think will happend if it ever faces a REAL enemy???!

While I wasn’t a submarine or surface fire controlman I was a submarine sonarman. I was in during the days of the real “cold war” fought under the water not by some politician’s rhetoric on tv, tv, what tv when you under the water, huh??? The point is that on numerous occasions right off the east coast I’d see (that’s how you find subs by using the half a billion dollar sonar system, can’t hear a sub unless your way to close and personal!!!) what looked like a Russian boat, and if the captain decided that the crew needed some good training he’d play, but eventually give up, go back to our box, and never send a message back to SUBLANT. Normally the skipper’s reaction would be that “we have no intel about Soviet boats operating here” and leave it at that. The other thing was that you could also pick British and French boats, I always thought of it as Ivan doing a “Westpac” just like I’d go on a “northern” run. The only time it ever became apparent to the general public was when a politicians/”military industrial complex needed to prod the sheeple.

The usa owes THE WORLD trillions, pays its bills with false money, and has killed a million people in iraq in an invasion that was totally unjustifed. the people of the usa should prepare for shutdown, either through bankruptcy or EMP attack.
its too late to change direction now. the western world has been hijacked by dark forces and is taking everyone down with them.
if you arent able to think for yourselves and retain a spiritual and ethical standard, then you have to accept the consequences.

The one thing that most people miss, is the assumption that our respective governments actually run things. The fringe element exists in every country, behind the scenes, manipulating this and that, sometimes with the knowledge of those in power and sometimes, not. If the civilian government should run astray, will the military take over, and look at the gang of 5, with Bush and Cheney. So with all Nations, we depend on the saneness of those who actually pull the strings.

Whoever sent the missle was sending a message to us: "Don't mess with me, because I can strike back". I don't think China or Russia need to send that message, but either Iran or North Korea might want to. The only reason to send that message is to avoid a war that the USA might start.

Two things this article didn't really touch on…. 1. Right around the same time that this missle was spotted of the U.S. coast, the U.S. had a fleet of warships and subs in the Pacific conducting random drills. Out of the blue, a Chinese submarine popped up out of the water RIGHT NEXT to one of the U.S. carriers – AND THEY NEVER DETECTED IT WAS THERE! Obviously, the Chinese are a lot more advanced in either their technology or cunning than the U.S. gave them credit for. 2. Days after the West Coast missle sighting, another unusual sighting occured off the East Coast, by New York or New Jersey. It was covered briefly on the internet, and then all evidence of it dropped away. I happened to see a photo of the East Coast object, and I'm personally not convinced that one was a missle – but having MANY contacts in the military, I am 100% sure the West Coast object WAS a missle. Plus, other Asian countries, including our 'allies' Japan – admit that it was a Chinese missle of the U.S. coast.

Idiots are so busy attempting to turn the U.S. into a globalist police state, they're going allow our true communist enemies to take us down! Maybe on purpose.

Obviously, this was a US missile launched as a warning to a China that refuses to bow to US monetary diktats. The previous news about a Chinese sub surfacing in the midst of US Navy ships was fabricated as a ploy to make this supposedly hostile missile launch look more plausible.

Many of you need clarity on chinese products. It is not cheap chinese products, it is cheap thieving American companies having their toxic products made with slave labor in China. It wasn't good enough that an American would work until they dropped over dead for 9 or 10 an hour, oh no. If it is made in China, I don't buy it, period. As far as the missile, look around you, your whole country has been invaded, our government has looted everything and you guys are worried about a sub, look around you, thats the least of your worries.

ob the Aussie, good point mate…Japan made crap-cars in the 1950's now look at Toyota / Lexus…the best quality autos in the world. China is going in that direction…we ( the US) must stop buying their products and funding their industrial growth. The US has shifted most of its industrial base over seas. WTF! We can't remain a the world super power with a service only economy…currently 70% service / 30% manufacturing. At this rate, the US military will be buying tanks, guns an ammo from China in 20 years. Stop shopping at Wal-Mart…wake-up. I'll pay 4x more for a US made product…stop buying the cheap crap and stop the ignorance…it is not bliss. GM failed because they had lost the quality edge, high priced Union labor who didn't give an fuck and made six figure salaries putting parts on cars…give me a break. Those Union line workers should take they HS diplomas and see about getting a job that pays that much in the real (non-Union) world…those fat, unskilled slobs should be happy with $15.00 an hour. Any industry with Unions is fucked today…auto, airlines and the list goes on.

What did you expect after years of letting the Chinese steal our military secrets or in fact have them given to them by the Clintonista's.This country continues on it's race to the bottom.

To be honest I would much rather have Kobe Bryant as President than Obonehead.
If Kobe Bryant was President China would be at our mercy. He is literally perceived as a God there.

If you thnk there is going to be a Peril Harbor,think again.There will be no country left to build a war machine to retalliate.That tells me that what actually happened to the south korea ship may be of outside influences.

Retired Chinese General: China Could Be Planning Surprise Missile Attack on United States « MidnightWatcher's Blogspot

[...] Flashback: Chinese Submarine was not the first on US coast – “The firing of a submarine-launched ballistic missile by a Chinese Jin-class submarine off the coast of southern California last Monday at the height of evening rush hour in Los Angeles was not the first time the U.S. Navy’s anti-submarine warfare sensors in the Pacific have failed… The Navy, clearly embarrassed over the undetected presence of a Chinese Jin-class SSBN submarine off the coast of Los Angeles, is, some 40 years after the Victor-III incident, continuing its age-old tradition of covering up when it screws up. Aiding and abetting the Pentagon are a group of recently-minted ‘experts’ from NASA, the Discovery Channel Rupert Murdoch’s array of claptrap publications, Pentagon-funded web sites and think tanks, and other ‘usual suspects’ in the conspiracy theory proffering business. The Pentagon, shown to have wasted billions of dollars on a useless ballistic missile defense system, is working overtime with the media and on the Internet to cover up the latest debacle. However, even some reporters who cover the Pentagon full-time are beginning to question the Pentagon’s version of events last Monday night over the skies west of Los Angeles.” Read more. [...]

The US is fooling itself if they think that the Chinese as well as other entities are not working overtime to become militarily superior to us! They are because they are planning for the day when military confrontation and war with the US becomes a reality! In their minds war with us is inevitable, whether over oil, Taiwan, currency or any of a number of scenarios which will put us at odds with them? The powers that be need to wake up and realize that China and our other detractors don't give a d*mn about budgets or political issues and weakening our ability to defend ourselves is just paving the road for them……..
