The stated ranges of those missiles in miles is hillarious. I’m surprised they didn’t include a decimal point.

It makes a lot more sense when you convert to km. 11,000 and 12,000 respectively.

Author made the common and stupid mistake of taking two significant digits and creating four out of two. He wasn’t paying much attention in seventh grade...too busy becoming a “journalist.”

Agreed.
7000 miles off the bed of even a very-very-big truck sounds like a B-movie plot line.
