God, yes. Someone sell a decent, _basic_ 4-door jeep/truck here in the states. Like a LR Series 3, but not Land Rover. Or a Nissan Patrol.

You completely miss the strategic purpose of having all three legs of the deterrent triad. SLBMs have a MUCH longer launch cycle, due to communication realities- therefore cannot serve as a credible rapid first-strike capability. Each leg contributes an overlapping set of capabilities.
In addition, the cost per…
It would make all cars more expensive - this just looked at the cost of the tax, assuming it was passed on to consumers. But if the competitive products were much more expensive, Domestic Auto makers could raise prices beyond costs.
And it would be shitty for workers - all cars more expensive == fewer cars made ==…
Turns out Farsi Island is fairly close to the west coast of the Gulf, so it’s not unreasonable that they drifted there on the way from Kuwait to Bahrain. What’s unreasonable is that boat 2 didn’t immediately tow boat 1, when they lost their engines and started to drift into the The Bad Place. That OIC had very poor…
fuel cell AIP is quieter than any Nuke boat. Rotating machinery is your enemy when quieting a sub, (followed closely by moving high pressure steam). If the only thing running is your main motor, that’s pretty damn quiet. (compared to a Nuke, which at at absolute min has main and aux seawater pumps, two steam turbines…
Right. Because Israel has threatened to wipe how many of it’s neighbors off the map? Because they have funded how many terrorists and revolutionaries in other countries?
It’s not a magic word - it’s proper analysis.

From the tail number of the ac behind it, it appears to be Inyokern CA. (http://flightaware.com/live/flight/N5… ) It appears they took the picture on the SE side of the apron.
BTW - this isn't cheap - just responsive.
$20000/lb to LEO - that's more expensive than the shuttle. Russia will only charge you $20 Mill for a seat on a Soyuz, and that's taking about 1-2000 lbs to orbit (including consumables). SpaceX will sell you a Falcon 1 launch for $54M for 29000 lbs - That's $2000/lb. Small payloads can go as "extra" for even less.
