Missile Hit Satellite

Thing go through air to hit thing in air, good.

Others see. More good. Others see power projected across vast distances, at unimagineable speed, to intercept object also moving at unimagineable speed. Ugh happy United States Navy didn’t screw it up.

Ugh impressed by display of raw power.

Ugh hopes none of that stuff hits anyone. Big lawsuit against United States. Bad.

Topics: military, rockets

   Guess this proves the leftys were right. A Star Wars missile defense system is totally out of the question. Can’t possibly work.

   Jules,

   I find the caveman depiction of the Navy as riddled with inaccuracies. I usually carry the club in my right hand while out at sea, not a spear.

   I’ve been retired for some years now, LT Nixon, but I wasn’t aware that the Navy had begun using the club aboard its ships. It seems to me that we could come up with something more sophisticated to keep thieves away.

   Well done, Navy.

   School bus sized? 4′x4′x7′ sounds like the short bus to me!
   Lot harder to do then the press womps would have you believe.
