that. also, forced water landing, no gear landing ending off runway, ground collisions, all are way more probable than “go vertically into the ground at 600 kts” crash everyone thinks.

would take way more than 100MT single blast to induce climate change. But it would most probably cause heavy fallout outside the range, AND cause diplomatic problems due to damage in neighbouring countries (as 50MT yield mode already caused such damage). Also, it was pointless really to test something as unusable as…

personally, i’d go with a steampunk styled prosthesis! :) I wonder if any company is making such...not that I need one, luckily no. Still...that style.

Way louder tho ;)

yeah, well, given modern naval weapons range, “near shorelines” can be well over 100km :)

AFAIK, landing traffic is supposed to stick to proper path, least its classed as botched/unsafe landing. Situation dependent you might loose your licence for that (or be forcibly discharged out of military in case its a military aircraft)
