Default Flying Ginsu rocket took out Tali leader

No explosives. They call it a 'bomb' with no explosives...I call it a rocket with blades.

Had no idea. Pretty cool!

Guess what also took out the "terrorists" that turned out to be civilians in the final days of Brandon's botched afghan withdrawal, too.

The ONLY good thing about Yahoo articles. They stopped commenting for a long time and just now brought them back. They didn't want to hear the truth.

Hell with that, blow the shit up. There are no 'innocent bystanders' in that shit-hole. Let it be known that if you harbor a terrorist in your home then your family is now at risk. The iron fist is the only thing these assholes understand.


Little known fact - back when Lebanon was exploding every other day some towel-heads decided it would be a good idea to also capture some Russians, and demand stuff. Spetnaz were called in, killed the terrorist and all their family members that could be found. After the dust settled the Russians were left alone. Guess it didn't look so good if your sister was one of the virgins waiting for you.

Isn't this the same guy who was killed in 2020?

What did they do, bomb the graveyard?

Cool weapon but in the hands of the same evil swamp we’re trying to drain? And the information coming from the same media that appears to lie incessantly? Meh, feels like cognitive dissonance to me.

Unlike other models of the Hellfire, the R9X doesn’t carry an explosive payload. Instead, it has a series of six rotating blades that emerge on its final approach to a target, Kitchen said. “One of their utilities is in opening up vehicles and other obstructions to get to the target without having to use an explosive warhead,” he said.


I'll bet his last thoughts were, "Damn, this hurts like a bitch".
