Did they tested it or they just claim safety issue to protect their gigantic profit margin?

As a Wisconsin resident - Wisconsin has a long history of supporting the military. Wisconsin ship yards were repurposed from building Great Lakes transport vessells to Navy ships during WWII, a tradition that carries on today. The biggest ammunition plant in America was the Badger Ammunition Plant outside of Baraboo,…

Not really anything wrong with doing it this way. If the ship can’t survive that, then you don’t want it on open ocean anyway. If you’re really concerned, build it in a dry dock instead.

Third options: new weapon systems are bloody expensive.

Well, one thing about reddit is that it is one of the few places where the anonymity of the internet persists. I don’t mind a bit of regulation, but the anonymity is for me the appeal of the site, though I use it rarely. I don’t want everything I say associated with my facebook or google account.
