Buk missile specs:

Target engagement zone

aircraft altitude – 15 м – 25 km

range – 3 km – 42 km

The missile can be broken down to fit into a golf bag.

The Russians shot down another Ukrainian plane from 20,000 feet a few days ago. Our local Putinists were happy to report then that the rebels had a BUK system capable of doing it. Now that it’s an airliner, the story will change.

Then you better have a VERY strong caddy with a very large bag.

At over 15 feet in length and over 1,000 pounds, your caddy will be grunting, and have difficulty keeping up with you.

Of course, he might hop a ride on that big ass truck that carries the radar and guidance van 'cuz it won't fit in any golf bag.

In other words, your post was pure BS.
