Official name of the Iraqi Integrated Air Defense System, derived from Irak as it is spelled in France, backwards. Took years to build, rendered inoperative in twenty minutes.Vympel wrote:What's that?Sea Skimmer wrote:

The printer part based based off the virus being on the printer rom chips or somthing like that. Its all very likely a load of crap. Stealth, 2000 pound bombs and Tomahawks are what killed KARI in the opening minutes.
