I start this thread to collect all the information we can find about the USS Louisville.
Particularly its training, ordnance and mission in general but especially during the Nimitz encounter.
I am convinced this submarine is the key to the tic tac mistery.
We have heard from pilots and sailors of the carriers but not a single word from the submarine crew.
Afaik the submarine do their secret training alone without the rest of the strike group.
The disturbance in the water, looking like a cross or a plane sure could fit the description of a submarine.
Theres the argument "they wouldnt shoot or release stuff in the air and endanger the pilots!", but be aware that the pilots shouldnt have been in this vector anyway. They were send their spontaneously by Kevin Day out of personal interest.
I can remember that Alex Dietrich said she asked the navy command if the USS Louisville shoot something in the air that could explain their encounter and iirc the answer was something like "they don't used anything that fit the description".
Now what if they described the tic tac as an craft the size of an F18 when in reality Fravor did had a parallax illusion and the tic tac was only half or a third of the reported size?
Did anyone found any testimony or comments from the USS Louisville staff online?
