Aviation accident theories

While doing some aside research for upcoming articles in the "MikeDs Accident Analysis" series, I found this:

This special airplane was a modified military Boeing 707, designated
EC-135N. When they were not involved in space shots, the EC-135Ns also
have many other uses, including the tracking of Russian satellites. There
were only a few of these EC-135Ns, so they were all very important. When
the Space Shuttle Columbia took off in April, there were only eight of
them.

The Space Shuttle Program was an indispensable key to the underway war
plans of the Bolsheviks, and the EC-135Ns were crucial to the Shuttle
Program. On May 6, 1981, an EC-135N, nicknamed the "Boss Hog," took off
from its base in Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio. It headed east on
what was to be a routine training flight. As the modified 707 flew
eastward, it was heading for an unexpected rendezvous.

Hovering high over the rolling hills of western Maryland, a lone
Cosmosphere was waiting for the Boss Hog. At 1051 EST the
pilot of the jet radioed the words "Flight level 29....." to controllers on the
ground. The plane was at 29,000 feet.

Moments later the Cosmosphere fired its Charged Particle Beam weapon
downward at the jet plane passing miles below it. The beam blasted a hole
through the top of the fuselage and another out through the bottom.
Explosive decompression emptied the cabin of its air. The blast also set
off a secondary explosion, turning the jet into a ball of flames.

At the same time control cables through the tail were destroyed, and the
jet turned violently nose down. Instead of gliding to a crash many miles
away, the ruined airplane dropped like a rock, almost straight down.

Radar traffic controllers were startled to see the plane disappear suddenly
from their screens, but it was all documented. It was all over before they
even knew anything had happened, however.

On the ground, eyewitnesses heard a boom-boom-boom, and moments later a
giant ball of fire came screaming downward out of the clouds. For at least
ten minutes small pieces of debris from the plane kept settling earthward
for miles around.

In any air disaster as violent as that one, the investigation usually
extends over a period of months - but not this one. On Friday May 29, just
over three weeks after the crash, the Air Force quietly announced that its
investigation was already over and there had been "some type of pilot
error". The Air Force knew what had blown their radar plane out of the air,
but they also declared that "for the time being the results would not be
made public."

While the Air Force was still reeling from the crash of the valuable
EC-135N, it became the Navy's turn.

The particle beams ARE SO EXACTING THAT THEY CAN BE SHOT RIGHT INTO A JET
TURBINE - IN FLIGHT. Once again Russia's target was a highly sophisticated
electronic warfare jet. The plane involved was an EA-6B Prowler based on
the nuclear supercarrier, USS Nimitz.

On the night of Tuesday, May 26, 1981 the Nimitz was engaged in
night-landing exercises just off the East Coast. Carrier landings are
always dangerous, and night landings especially so; but the EA-6B has a
special advantage. It is equipped with an Automatic Carrier Landing System
to permit safe landings even in conditions of zero visibility.

Partly as a result, the Prowlers are known as some of the safest of all
carrier aircraft; but on the night of May 26 one of Russia's new Jumbo
Cosmospheres was hovering high above the Nimitz. It was one of the two
which are armed with a Neutron Particle Beam Weapon.

As the EA-6B approached the Nimitz to land, the Cosmosphere waited. At a
critical moment of the final approach, the Cosmosphere fired. The invisible
neutron beam instantly killed the Prowler's 3 man crew consisting of a pilot and 2 ECMOs, and temporarily jammed the airplane's electronic systems.

Being suddenly without guidance, the jet veered to the right and crashed
into a deck full of airplanes. The toll: 14 dead, 48 injured, and 20
aircraft destroyed or damaged. It was the Navy's worst flight-deck disaster
since the early 1950s.

We need to do something about their moon bases...

Because, you know:

All your base are belong to us.

:D
 
So if these satellites are in low earth orbit and need about a half-meter accuracy, that works about to about nine milliarc-second accuracy (mas). It's very small, but not unprecedented; Hubble and other deep space observation platforms have managed 3-5 mas.

However, that was with very little relative motion between the bodies, predictable motion, and lots of opportunity to refine the pointing. A low earth orbit is moving over the surface of the earth around 7,500 m/s (14,500 knots), trying to point at something moving in a somewhat unpredictable path. And, if the device has to detonate a nuclear bomb to generate the energy needed, it is very much a single-shot opportunity to achieve the same order of magnitude of pointing accuracy that's ever been done, and there will be all kinds of radiation bouncing things around.

Buuuut, I suppose if you're playing for keeps, a fuel budget is probably low on the list of priorities when tracking feedback from a targeting mechanism.
 
Do the Cosmospheres look like this:

I think someone has been reading too many Dale Brown books.

Besides, it was a Marine Prowler that crashed on the Nimitz that night.
 
The OP's article is from something called FIRE FROM THE SKY: Battle of Harvest Moon & True Story of Space Shuttles by "One Who Knows." It shows up on a couple of conspiracy websites.
