| #11 I'm thinking that if we are worth the shit we talk, back when that Russian atomic ram jet skipped off the ocean these missiles were approved for design and 90% completion, using as many off the shelf warhead parts possible, and that space sled to pilot car some real world variables. However it is, IIRC the Russians sortied their subs after the US changed its stance into aggressive accusation. In fact, the drumbeat sounds a lot like McCain and His Heroes. |
