Henra - this is Pprune.
How Dare you use Maths, Science and Sense - especially on this thread.
We are actually discussing SAM's real identity as Head of Black Ops. Mossad.
and not as I call he - the Uber-Walt

Excluding today, nine days until we face SAM's clear and present danger; I'm sure those pesky Iranians are planning some patriot games to keep the west on its toes. On the other hand, time is on their side, and they could draw out all this tension without remorse until......October (or so I read when I hunted for it); it will surely add to the sum of all fears.
Sorry, getting a bit silly and carried away by the real world (of T Clancy), rather than SAM's fantasy version.
M2 - you nicked that last bit from an Air Clues article (about QFIing) published about 30 (or more) years ago.

Are you the 13yr old grandson of a bloke who used to work with cold war SAMs who likes listening to grandads stories a little too closely for his mental health but has no real knowledge of the world bar what he reads in bad newspaper articles and should pay as much attention to science lessons as he does to grandpa?
Maybe?

first time I've heard a suggestion that Israel has enhanced radiation warheads, or that its submarines are nuclear armed. Whats your source for those?
And what makes you think diesel-electric subs are noisy?

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I have been following this thread and also the one about the USA hypersonic glider programme to enable them to deliver conventional weapons within an hour. What is wrong with conventional MIRVs ? Are they not allowed, not accurate enough or what ?

There is stuff about Israeli Navy's nuclear capability on wikipedia, for what it's worth.
In fairness JDW speculates the Dolphin subs may be part of Israels 2nd strike capability.

unleash fatal attacks by Iran, Syria et al.
As for Iran, I'm sure the Israelis, Yanks, Brits, Saudis etc etc are working feverishly behind the scenes to drive a wedge between the turbaned one and the poison dwarf. Give it a few months and hopefully the whole regime will come crashing down a la Libya, without a shot being fired or nuke being dropped in anger.

The story started with speculation that Israel had been testing Popeye Turbos from one of their subs in the Indian Ocean during 2000. Many people just accept it as fact when there is no real evidence.
Popeye Turbo - Israel Special Weapons

Oh for goodness sakes SAM, we read your old posts, we read your new posts - they contradict each other.
Even I know Israel does not have 10 times our nuke capabilty.
Also the politics of a pissy PM against uncle sam would not even come close to the monies that would have to be paid to LM (IIRC) over the loss of the Trident platform missile.
SHARED rocket. OUR Warhead, now bugger off back to your tinfoil beanie...

"SHARED rocket. OUR Warhead, now bugger off back to your tinfoil beanie..."
Hold on, he can't bugger off yet, he's got 2 bets to pay up on in a few days time.
His ranting and ravings are getting worse.
"Every boy/man has to do many months of National Service - & just like Switzerland - they can keep an automatic weapon in their home."
and just what does that have to do with the Big Blu and Israel or the US conducting any sort of strike on Iran and it's nuclear facilities ?
SAM, go take another chill pill and I'll see you on the 15th - and then I am off into the wild's of Northern Australia, as far away from telephones, TV, SAMXXV, his rants and any possible war while you wait for the Mushroom clouds to develop (although Obama just stuffed that up by basing Marines and other nice aircraft up there and making it a target).

Why didn't the sycamore seed that hit me on the bonce the other day leave me reeling in pain? Surely even such a small object would cause harm at such a tremendous velocity?
OK, back on-topic. My bunker is ready in case Sam's worst predication comes to pass. Tickets available at very reasonable rates.

There you go. Acorn, no wing(s). Sycamore, wings. Just realised that earlier I stated that a sycamore seed has one wing - of course I was thinking of an Ash seed. Can't believe that I didn't get pulled apart for that one, but too late now!!!
So, everything has a terminal velocity in freefall, it's just different for everything. Oh, and SAM, that wasn't Newton.
Back to the thread, we appear to have moved on from Big BLU against Iran to Bunker Busters followed by nukes DOWN THE SAME HOLES. Holy crap, I want to see that done!
Right, here's a better plot. Iran joins NATO. Israel and the US bomb them. The rest of NATO is obliged to retaliate (an attack against one is an attack against all) and we're into WWIII. And to think we thought it would be the Cold War that was going to do that. Asking for suggestions for the tilte of my new book.

Oh, be glad you weren't picnicking 'neath a coconut tree.
*whether or not there is a Chateau Chambord is irrelevant, and more importantly not funny.

"Asking for suggestions for the tilte of my new book". With you latest ravings, the title should be:-
"I have the same problem as SAMXXV"
Willard
Lucky he wasn't picnicking in Australia, they might have had a drop bear drop on them

Have you seen how big they have become ? That's why I carry a big bore nowadays but I've still got to add one to the collection
