“I like the Atomic Ham Bomb.”

Pork weaponization should be a priority for use against an enemy which fears it.

Didnt we put one into orbit yesterday?? No one is saying what the mission is but I’m reasonably positive they could bring that bad boy down anywhere on earth. The rest of the world is gonna treat it as if this is the intent.

Fill your hollow points with bacon grease for maximum effect.

You get something that will resist the re-entry heat coming in from space and use it as a “Rod from God” and you don’t need bunker busters. All that is needed is a guidance package.

Eventually with some non materialistic shielding or “force field” and some near the speed of light speeds even something the size of a peanut would be far greater in terms of explosive power, that is a theoretical concept that is probably coming to a reality very soon.

Fwiw, here's a link to some photos of the rocket that carried the X-37B up.

197’-1.74”

In order to convert it to 200ft, a meter would have to be 3.3283408 ft instead of 3.280839 ft.

Do you think we possess the accuracy to have these units hit on top of a prior bore? That might increase the penetration of the successive hit as the rock would have lost its structure. OTOH the apparent viscosity might increase in a thixotropic medium.

Interesting problem.

Would the targeting be precise enough to drop one, then another, then another til you've made your way through the bunker's roof, if it was thicker than one perpetrator could handle? Like hammering a chisel through a block of stone. The follow up with with a MOAB type bomb that detonate inside the structure for good measure?

I hope Barry doesn’t find out about this information. He’ll put a stop to it.

Don't worry. He went golfing. Unless he likes to punch up F.R. on his Blackberry, he won't know.

***Do they ever use these clusters??? Actually, they only need 2...one for Meca & the other for Medina....***

Need three. Lets not forget the sacred well at Quom where the 12th Imman resides underground.;-D

If he'd use it at all it would be to trade it away in exchange for another photo opportunity. ;-) >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.

He could use one to give Bawney Fwanks an enema! Bawney is likely packed so hard, even a nuke wouldn't work.Every fag in the union has been knocking Bawney to get cheap real estate development loans.
