A contractor who was working at a Florida airport opened up a container to find a live missile.
The shocking find happened on Friday afternoon at Lakeland Linder International Airport east of Tampa.
It's not known how the missile arrived at the airport which is mainly used for private jets and no longer for any kind of military use.

This must have a serial number or the like, I’m sure the folks down at MacDill know where it came from. I bet the phone lines to METRA (Mécanique Aviation Traction) were pretty hot this afternoon.
BTW there were rumours that some of Sadam’s missiles turned up eventually in containers at Rotterdam port. Often these shipping containers only get opened when someone doesn’t pay their storage dues.

""Being an ex ordnance guy, with an A&P ticket, just not possible." Been doing this for over 40 years - "jury-rigging" the mechanical and electrical part probably do-able, a software geek with the manufacturer's manual also probable.
I'm not saying it would be pretty, but it could be functional. "
And it only has to work ONCE.
All the safeties are there to prevent accidents. Not malice.

One more point: It was impossible for the RBMK type reactor at Chernobyl to explode. The operators had to work at it, but they managed.

Look. It would take a launch rail to get it off the ground. OR, they’d have to get a rather big plane and do it.
Planes get tracked by radar, do you realize that the USAF planes would do to a plane that even got within miles of AF1 without acknowledging who they would be? Besides that, if they manged to launch it, the USAF planes would become the target.
Aint gonna happen.
