From: Phil Payne "Centcom chiefs issued emergency orders to the crew of the B1, one of several US warplanes flying at will over Baghdad. In recent days, with Iraq’s air defences all but destroyed, American bombers and fighter jets have been “stacking” over the capital, ready to be called into action 24 hours a day. The B1 had been heading to a pre-planned target after mid-air refuelling, but was immediately diverted. Twelve minutes after receiving their orders and the restaurant’s co-ordinates, the crew dropped their deliberately specific payload. The first two “bunker buster” bombs were designed to pierce any armour protecting the meeting. The second two had delayed “25 millisecond” fuses, and were designed to explode deep underground." If that's what they were carrying, I wonder what their originally designated target was? It seems quite a specialist bomb load to be carted about the heavens on a whim. -- Phil Payne http://www.isham-research.com +44 7785 302 803 +49 173 6242039 --- BBBS/NT v4.01 Flag-4* Origin: Barktopia BBS Site http://HarborWebs.com:8081 (1:379/1.45) SEEN-BY: 633/267 270 @PATH: 379/1 633/267 |
