So are most drones. Those the MiG-21/L-29 conversions would be even more so I suppose, since you can shoot them down with fixed wing rather the needing a helicopter or Spitfire.Vympel wrote: Yeah, MiG-21 or L-29 drones converted to the purpose- of course with the chemical drop tanks they had negligible range and were also air defense system fodder.

And, on topic, hasn't evidence for Iraq's possession of WMD's been a bit thin on the ground?

I think since everyone thinks Shep is a quasi-fascist anyway, he's decided to adopt the regalia of a homegrown (IE Southern) fascist organization, so to speak.evilcat4000 wrote:Why does Sheppard like such a terrible organization anyway ?

They routinely fire cannister shot into rioting crowds from tank main guns,
and occupy Utah as a military district and shoot anyone who tries to retrieve
rubble from the Mormon Temple in Salt Lake City (yes, we levelled it with
artillery and airplane bombs), we're occupying Canada, and shooting any
canucks who screw with us, and the SOCIALIST party is big in the USA

By the end of TVO the USA has excited areas where PLebiscites went against them. Also, Utah is now a full state of the Union. Quebec was granted independance. And, in any event, the CSA now gets to deal with Black suicide bombers and car bombs. The CSA is a infiniately worse place than the USA.MKSheppard wrote:

"The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles."
