nanook 1 #51 January 3, 2011 QuoteSome of the targets had homing devices on them, the "defenders" know the test is coming and what type of missile is coming, no countermeasures have been used on the targets, etc., etc. Not one BMD has been tested in a truly realistic manner. Basing any strategy on bogus test results is foolish in the extreme. Sounds like they were testing the systems themselves rather than the capability to hit something. After all, you can't figure out flaws too much without a "perfect run". The closest analogy (which is a bad one) is: The M16 was never tested on people who were trying to kill the tester. Their accuracy was tested on paper targets that didn't move._____________________________ "The trouble with quotes on the internet is that you can never know if they are genuine" - Abraham Lincoln Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Which will be tough; when it comes to self-serving, ass-kissing apologies, Joe is hard to beat. But Obama has the best "Bow Down" that any president ever had.

One good point for our beloved President. But Obama's a tall man. He has to bow to be face-to-face. Now, Teddy Roosevelt was a little squirt. He bowed to no man. He just kicked them in the shins.

jakee 1,500 #59 January 3, 2011 QuoteYou do realize that is "the standard" for damn near any test, right? Which does mean quoted performance will not neccesarily translate to real life. Reminds me of the 'official' intercept rate of Scuds by the Patriot system in the first Gulf scuffle...Do you want to have an ideagasm? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
