Aliens probably build their bases on Earth’s seabed disturbing submarines

Scientists still have to find irrefutable evidence proving the existence 
of UFOs. Hundreds of new reports on UFOs appear everyday. One percent of 
those reports remain a mystery unraveled though 99% of them could be 
explained by natural or man-made factors.

Aliens probably build their bases on Earth’s seabed disturbing submarines
Let us assume that aliens exist and visit Earth on a regular basis. What 
would be the best place for them to build a secret base? Seabed would be 
the best option. The oceans cover two-thirds of the planet. The ocean 
remains virtually unexplored. We have a much clearer picture of 
processes that occur on the Moon, our knowledge of things that happen 
deep under the surface of the sea is scarce. As it turns out, reports 
about certain mysterious undersea incidents arrive steadily. Those 
incidents are reported by naval officers who normally have good 
technical expertise and composure. The Navy officers are subject to 
annual medical examinations.

Submarines have no skylights. Maintaining radio communication under the 
sea is not easy though a radio wave passes through the water a lot 
better than it does above the sea surface. That is why submariners 
largely report incidents related to strange acoustic signals.
 
“I remember the time when panic struck the brass at the Headquarters of 
the Soviet Navy. It was in the mid-1970s, and the masters of the nuclear 
submarines began reporting strange sources of sound. The sound men on 
board the subs couldn’t identify the sounds detected in the Atlantic 
while on duty during the combat cruising,” says former senior officer of 
the Headquarters of the Russian Navy, Captain 1st Rank (Ret.) Vadim 
Kulinichenko.
 
“The crew of a submarine had to go though a troublesome experience while 
doing its best to sneak past the NATO antisubmarine systems and maintain 
the course as the sub moved at a depth of 200 meters. Some personnel, 
especially young seamen and midshipmen, could be pretty stressed-out 
from all that pressure. And suddenly a duty sound man reports a case of 
‘unidentifiable sounds’ to the captain’s bridge. The combat alarm stays 
on as long as sounds are being detected. Because nobody can be certain 
of the nature of the sounds, probably it’s some brand-new sub or a 
surface ship of the ‘potential enemy’. The sounds of the unknown could 
be detected several times a day,” says Kulinichenko.
 
 
 
What kind of sounds are you talking about?
 
“The sounds varied by the length and tone. The majority of them 
resembled a long croaking of a frog.”
 
“The number of incidents involving strange sounds kept growing. The 
Soviet Navy could not simply brush them aside. Finally, in October 1977, 
the Navy ordered the captains of the submarines to report all strange 
sonic incidents. And I know for sure that the U.S. Navy has instructed 
its subs likewise.”
 
“The operative staff personnel of all the fleets were told to gather 
information on any unexplainable acoustic manifestations. Every incident 
of the kind was to be marked in the charts. The naval officers whose job 
was to gather such information were dubbed “croakers.” There was a 
“croaker” in the North Fleet where I was serving at the time. Once I 
happened to take a look at his “for-your-eyes-only” chart. It looked as 
if the whole North Atlantic, north of Island and upward, had contracted 
measles. By the way, the term “croaker” eventually settled in. It was 
used for referring to the source of those strange phenomena,” says 
Kulinichenko.
 
Did the Navy arrive at any conclusions?
 
“No conclusions whatsoever. At first the Navy suspected the Americans, 
but those suspicions were pure allegations, there wasn’t any evidence in 
hand. A book titled U.S. Navy Intelligence Against the USSR has been 
recently published in Russia. It was written by two high-ranking 
American submariners. It is an interesting book with numerous accounts 
of U.S. naval reconnaissance during the Cold War era. However, there’s 
nothing in that book that can refer to the activity of “croakers.” Looks 
like the Americans have nothing to do with it.”
 
“Some authors simply confuse one thing with the other while writing 
about some ‘croaker’ allegedly captured by the Soviet Navy back then. 
The Soviet and U.S. Navy alike actively used sonic underwater buoys. In 
short, it’s a boy positioned at the sea bottom for transmitting certain 
acoustic signals that can be heard within a range of 20-30 kilometers. 
Locating and destroying a sonic buoy of the potential enemy is really a 
big deal. For some reasons, the abovementioned authors take the cases of 
foreign sonic underwater buoys for the capture of ‘croakers’. Nobody has 
ever caught any of them yet.”
 
You said the Navy attempted to establish contact with the “croakers.” 
What are they, after all? Are they UFOs or sounds produced by fishes, 
other marine animals?
 
“So far there is no answer to this question. The ocean is like a forest 
in spring, it rustles thousands of different sounds. The majority of 
those sounds have been properly described and filed under proper 
categories. Any Navy training center can teach you to handpick sounds 
out of a cacophony. The list of sounds keeps growing. One theory 
maintained that the weird sounds were produced by female species of the 
killer whales while copulating. However, the killer whales are still out 
there in the ocean, and they keep copulating. But the mysterious 
‘croakers’ are gone. The first croakers were reported in the early 
1970s, the ‘croaking’ reports reached a peak in the period from 1975 
through 1980. Eventually, they just vanished in the deep blue sea.
 
To my knowledge, the Russian submarines haven’t detected any new 
‘croakers’ since the early 1990s.”
 
According to chief designer Nikolai Shevchuk at the Nikolayev Shipyard 
in Ukraine, Soviet designers worked on a flying submarine before the 
WWII broke out. The flying submarine was designed to carry a crew of 
three. It was designed to take off the sea surface and fly around a 
certain area searching for enemy vessels. Having located a target, the 
winged sub was to dive underwater, approach an enemy vessel and launch 
torpedoes. The sub was thought to be an ideal weapon for conducting 
sabotage activities behind enemy lines.
 
The design of the flying submarine was approved by the Scientific 
Research Committee of the Soviet Union. But the project stalled in 1938 
due to unknown reasons. Nobody has ever heard of it since.
 
It is quite possible that the project was put on hold at the time. 
Either the Soviet Navy or shipbuilders contracted by NATO may have 
resurrected it in the 1960s or 1970s.
 
Technical specifications of the flying submarine
 
Crew: 3 men
 
Speed: 200 km/h
 
Range: 800 km
 
Maximum altitude: 2,500 m
 
Submersion depth: 45 m
 
Independent underwater operations: 48 hours
 
Weapons: two18-inch torpedoes; two paired machine guns
 
The first submarines were built at the turn of the 20th century. The 
first mysterious incidents involving submarines came on record during WWI.
 
On July 10, 1918, the U.S. submarine L-2 and the German submarine U-56 
were about to attack each other. A sound man on board the American sub 
reported yet another U-boat at a distance. No sooner had he finished his 
report, the first enemy submarine blew up. The sound of the second 
unidentified sub died away 20 minutes later. The above sound man claimed 
that he received a strange message in Morse code: three long sounds and 
one short. The sounds represented the letters “OE”. The meaning of the 
message remained unclear.
 
The captain of the L-2 figured out that the other German sub torpedoed 
the friendly one that was gearing up for action. However, the postwar 
documents clearly indicated that only one German submarine operated in 
that area in the summer of 1918. In fact, aside from the L-2, no other 
subs operated in the area. According to documents, the area was free of 
depth bombs at the time. The strange two-letter message was not used by 
either of the parties involved in hostilities.
 
The incident may have taken place due to some sort of confusion during 
the war. Today it is hard to find out what caused the incident resulting 
in the sudden demise of the German submarine. However, the statistics 
released by the International Union of Submariners show that during a 
hundred-year period, from 1904 to 2004, 204 submarines were lost due to 
reasons unrelated to hostilities. In other words, each year 2.3 
submarine perishes goes down. Maybe the actual number of casualties is 
higher. Not every country is willing to declassify data on its vessels 
deemed sunk or missing.
