[prophetic]

As I've said many times over many years, with the US Military's fixations on PRECISION WEAPONS and the huge development & inventory of such weapons, they have totally lost sight of the fact that there will always be a need for weapons that can do mass destruction.

Its almost like the mindset is saying We're going to mouse-click the enemy to death!!" Meanwhile the Russians are building some of the most powerful nuclear strategic subs with the most powerful nukes ever seen or deployed and has more than twice the explosives delivery than our subs!

We are going SMALLER while our enemies are going many times bigger!!

I'm convinced that our military leadership are really gone bonkers a long time ago.

We aren't. This is just a handful of weapons to give STRATCOM some flexibility in potential limited scenarios, where we have no counter to the use of a small tactical weapon except to blow up the planet, which isn't necessarily a convincing deterrent.
