North Korea readying rockets to aim at U.S. targets, state media says

Well the Air Force designated it a fighter because the pilot (aims) the ordnance just like a gun in the nose or on wings. It carried a grand total of two :eek3: laser-guided bombs because it was too small for anything more. They were dropped far from the target and guided by the pilot to the target.

The B-2 Bomber carries 20 tons of conventional or nuclear bombs which are dropped straight out the bottom where gravity takes over. Hence a (bomber).

Some planes are given the F designation to draw interest; top pilots looking at "new" aircraft are going to want to fly fighters more than bombers and those much more than cargo and tankers.

The answers kind of vague... F-117's "F" was given because it was classed as air to ground attack, like F-111, A-6, A-10, etc...

The operational aircraft had the official designation of "F-117A". Most modern U.S. military aircraft use post-1962 designations in which the designation "F" is usually an air-to-air fighter, "B" is usually a bomber, "A" is usually a ground-attack aircraft, etc. (Examples include the F-15, the B-2, and the A-6.) The F-117 is primarily a ground-attack aircraft so its "F" designation is inconsistent with the DoD system, but it is an inconsistency that has been repeatedly employed by the U.S. Air Force with several of its ground attack aircraft since the late 1950s, including the Republic F-105 Thunderchief and General Dynamics F-111 Aardvark.

i wonder how would China react if USA actually nuked NK?! or even the SK since they're so close...irradiation is going to be a BIG problem, and Samsungs products would be facing a big boycott b/c of its radition dangers... and im wondering if China is keeping quiet...till someone hits NK then they'd have an excuse to hit back to US, i'd hate to think of this possibility..being there...its like they just might...

I doubt we will ever nuke NK... nuking is our very, very, very, very, very last option. Besides, it will take us 3-4 days to complete the invasion.
 
Sure our government don't want to be the first one, and will never be, but what Grummer means is if one starts, there will be a possibility of domino effect. We will never know. This is really scary. Nobody wants to be the first to start, but many will follow. If NK decides to be the first one, the reaction could cause world wide riots. It can lead to global devastation.

No need to nuke them. Even if they make good on their threats. They are a small country and should be easily overthrown with a combination of a balanced ground/air/water attack.

Yes, that what I believe - I seriously doubt that US will use nuclear weapon on NK, also NK doesn't have same military strategies as US does.

NK threat is rhetoric, but in case, if they did, we can stop them from touch the US soil.

Nobody care about NK now, neither is Russia or China.
 
If we nuke NK. It's not good.. It can spend radioactive poison in air to South Korea become million cancer patients to death. as like Japan's nuclear power plant fallout due to earthquake and tsunami. They're eating fishes make you become cancer patient.

Yes, Evo, that why I don't support to nuke the NK.
 
I'm sure that USA have Missile shield. My brother worked for Boeing Fire dept and he saw secret test on one of Boeing airplane that have laser that can aim heat and destroy missiles. He said that they had successful test. So I bet once NK fires missile at us, we'll just shoot it down. I bet NK don't have that alot missiles anyway. Once all of their missile shot down, they'll be humilated.

USA managed to overthrow Iraq with zero nuclear weapons so I know that it can be done.

Of course, it can be devastation if we used it on NK and it would draw lot of criticizes/boycott from all countries around the world. I don't think we're stupid enough to nuke them.
 
Are US and North Korea going to be in the war? I am not sure about understanding that news.

North Korea leader was anger at U.N. Sanctions voted for punishment at NK's building nuclear weapons.

NK leader cancelled cease-fire agreement since 1950's. It's ready to start war.

USA deploying 14 new missile interceptors at Alaska base and California base by year 2017. Defense dept will spend $1 billion dollars.
 
If North Korea nuke our country as miss target near your home. It will spend radioactive poison human to human can be thyroid cancer. I suggest you buy a "radioactive iodine" medicine tablets.

There were posts made in this thread about earthquakes in California so I replied. I know the topic, I've read all of it.

Yeah, I know. I live in LA area. I just want to know if you think California coast would break off when there's an earthquake. That's what NitroHonda said.

It ain't North Korea that worries me. It's the very fact that California (West coast) is about to break off and become an island if it doesn't wash away first.

BS, right?
