Russian Submarine K-129 and the CIA Project Jennifer

This is probably one of the best stories of the Cold War. A sunken Soviet missile sub that may have been hijacked, a possible rogue missile launch against Pearl Harbor, and the Navy and CIA scrambling to find and recover the sub. Oh and there's an eccentric billionaire. I don't know if it gets any better especially since it seems to be mostly true. :-) Here are some links with a fair amount of reading and some good illustrations of the unusual and classified hardware involved in this story.
