Smart munitions

1-Radar detection is difficult because of the missile’s small size and low altitude flight, which ensure high probability of survival enroute to highly defended targets.
2-radar dectection is difficult because it never shows up on radar at all unless its speeding

1-It has become the combat proven “weapon of choice” for critical long-range, precision strike missions against high-value,heavily defended and politically sensitive targets.

1-utilizes highly integrated Global Positioning System and Inertial Navigation System (GPS/INS) guidance coupled with a digital scene matching system (DSMAC) and terrain contour matching (TERCOM) for highest end-game accuracy.GPS-only missions provide for very short mission planning response time.
2-Uses a map and watch

1-incorporates innovative technologies to provide new operational capabilities while dramatically reducing acquisition, operations and support costs.
2-lives with its mother

1-The strike controller can flex the missile inflight up to 15 preprogrammed alternative targets or redirect it to a new target. This targeting flexibility includes the ability to loiter over the battlefield awaiting an assignment to a time critical target. The missile can also transmit Battle Damage Indication (BDI) imagery and missile health and status messages via the satellite data link.
2-Has a mobile phone waits in a diner

1-Additionally, its modular design allows for easy integration of future payload candidates NBC

1 -Is a cruise missile
2 -Is a suicide bomber

1-Costs about $600,000
2-Life is cheap

In the current war on terror thousands of cruise missiles have been launched. In fact so many have been used the military is worried it will not have enough for future conflicts, as they may not have the funding for future purchases. The terrorists will have as many as they need as long as our current policies on the middle east continue.

I have no problem that saddam is gone but the way it was done was screwed up.
In apocalypse now Kurtz asks willard "do you think my methods are unsound?'
