It is probably one of the best weapons ever developed.
“It is probably one of the best weapons ever developed.”
After seeing what little is declassified and available for public viewing, I have absolutely no doubt.
Side story...
I remember at the start of the first gulf war my father and I watching it all unfold on TV. CNN had just interviewed a slim built man that had just programmed the co-ordinates into the Tomahawks and launched them, his coffee cup could be seen on the console behind him, and he just casually wrapped up the interview with a comment like “come back in about an hour and we’ll let you know what we hit”
My father commented that back during his service in WW2 a ‘warrior’ was found in a trench or a foxhole clutching a .303, with rounds whizzing by just inches above his head, but now the warriors are “these skinny four-eye desk jockeys safe in their office” (his words) ...but he also noted that the power these “kids” are wielding scared him.
