I hope you're not under the impression every missile fired hits its target.
I remember (because I lived near Eglin, AFB) when we ended up with a Tomahawk landing in Alabama...
ISIS put pics online when one of our Tomahawks crashed last year.
For some reason that didn't make as much press.
Russians are going to use the opportunity we've fostered in Syria to test out new toys they've built. I'd expect 'teething' problems.
No, I just think it’s interesting that the article is so enamored of the Russians missile as if it the bestest most perfectest thing since sex.
