Pacific 03/21/84: The USS Kitty Hawk (CV-63) is struck during night operations by a surfacing Soviet Victor I nuclear-powered attack submarine in the southern Sea of Japan, approximately 100 miles from mainland Japan, while en route to the Yellow Sea. The KittyHawk sustains a minor hole below the waterline in an aircraft fuel tank on the starboard side and continues normal operations.The Soviet vessel is observed dead in the water for a while with a dent across its aft deck. It is assisted by the Soviet Kara class cruiser Petropavlovsk and later is towed by a Soviet salvage vessel to the Vladivostok naval base.U.S. Navy officers say there was no evidence of nuclear leakage from the submarine. The Kitty Hawk had been taking part in joint U.S.-Korea 'Team Spirit 84' exercises. The submarine had been following the Kitty Hawk carrier group with other surface ships for several days. Navy officials claim the carrier's escort ships deliberately broke contact with the submarine after simulating its destruction 15 times to begin a new phase in the exercise where the Kitty Hawk would use deception techniques to lose the trailing Soviet surface ships. The Soviet submarine apparently lost track of the Kitty Hawk and was surfacing to find it when the collision occurred.
