That’s just great! Just what we need now!
oops. next time without the oops.
Oops......sorry bro...my bad
Well, it does have 100% Indian coded software...
Kinda like a 737.
In the early days of the PATRIOT missile program, a missile launched from White Sands landed in a cemetery in Juarez.
Sorry about that, Chief.
True that!
Wait until someone does this with a nuke. I’m looking at you, Iran.
Hmmmmm, I wonder what this button does.
Talk about giving a good swift KICK to an always buzzing Hornet’s Nest. You can bet the Paki’s are wanting to turn the tables and have ‘technical malfunction’ of their own, firing a missle into India. “Oh, a thousand apologies to our dear neighbors!
Pakistan probably appreciates getting its hand on one of India’s top weapon systems.
Od course, you know that India is a nuclear power.
And so is Pakistan.
This could’ve gone sideways REALLY easy.
Do you REALLY think it was an accident? We begin bombing in 5 minutes. Picked a good time with Vlad busy in Ukraine. India doesn’t like China and India is no help to us.
Let the sparks fly.
...Inshallah...
India has been good at playing the superpowers against each other back in the Cold War.
But, now, they China as the threat to deal with and are now allied in the Pacific Quad alliance against China: US, Australia, Japan, India.
Nudge, nudge wink, wink.
I’m suspicious.
