If cavitation is making prop noise, then super cavitation is making lotsa prop noise. I always thought that was bad in sub warfare. Isn't that why the U.S. finally invented swim out torpedoes to reduce the noise during launch? So I guess the Russians assume that with a 200 mph torpedo, enemy subs won't have time to even notice. That really is more impressive then a maneuvorable re-entry vehicle for an ICBM.

Speaking of ICBM's, why doesn't someone make a heated toilet seat!

I had one of those warmed toiletseats. Man, that was GREAT!!! Untill it broke.
My GF sometimes yelled at me because I was in the little room far too long to be healthy. She actually was concerned some times.

Now what would China and Russa want with such obviously offensive weapons? Are they looking for a war? Well if we went to war with China that would be interesting. Fighting against copy cats of our own military weapons. I wonder how reliable those are. I mean since most copy cat crap from China sux arse horribly, I have to wonder if their copy cat of the F-14 will fly and if so how well. I wonder if their Version of the Hummer is an H2 or a real hummer copy?

Atrocities, sometimes I wonder about your view on the world

The USA also develops and builds offensive weapons, hey, even us in Sweden develop and builds our own fighter and attack jetplanes, it doesn't mean we're going to break our almost 200 years long period of peace and go out trying to conquer the world.
This is as the world is.

Ruatha when in doubt just look at my name.

For the record I live in a liberal Media controlled environment so the truth is something that is never spoken here. It is up the people of the world and the World Wide Web to keep me informed on truth.

So when I post odd things that make no sense at all, just keep in mind that I am from the USA. Nuff Said. (Or as the French like to call us "Ugly Stupid Americans!" or was it "Unbelievably Stupid Americans?" I forget after the war thingy.)

Atrocities
I believe the correct term used by the French is:
"Eish, Stupid Americans!"

I got a chance to hear it a couple of times a few weeks back when I was in Paris and I observed a small group of Americans talking about what souveniers they bought in Paris...

and this guy said:"I got this way out cool Batman action figure !!!!"
and the 2 blond cheerleaders next to him said:" Come on Craig show it pleeeese !"

needles to say their little conversation triggered quite a few of the aforementioned satements from the nearby sitting french people. Oh and from me and a few of my pals to...
