What's the flight time of a missile from the "nearest" Boomer stationed off N Korea to strike the capitol?
Trying to get a feel for the total time to eradicate the NK capitol once they have fired on US interests. |

How about "an interminable wait"?
While the Zero decides whether or not we should respond or just to send Hillary to talk down to them. I have always thought a Prez would have no choice but to retaliate, but in this new era of hope and change, I think we would be more focused on the injustices we have perpetrated against them, the suffering we have caused and how many billions or trillions of aid to send to them. |

I'm guessing that the Tomahawks from the SSGN would be feet dry first. Yeah, but at 550 MPH, they will take 45 minutes from launch to boom. A bit cheaper than a Trident. As you noted earlier the NorKs have crap for ASW. I could park an SSGN 15nm from shore. Depending on the location of the SSGN in relation to the position of the targets, I could have warheads on foreheads in less than 30 minutes. Oh and if they decided to move in that 30 minutes, I could use Block IV Tomahawks to hunt them down. Less chance of someone mistaking it for an attach on their territory. And 154 Tomahawks do make quite the impression. |

But we already own the Tridents. And what else are ya gonna use them for? Probably would not get replaced in inventory either. Might as well fire it as dismantle after it rust out. And we got the 'red hot line' to tell the others where its going. |

We would knock it down, and, it would be the last thing they ever fired at anything. With what would we knock it down. I heard OB is dismantling the Alaska missle defense system. You have heard wrong. He probably would LOVE to do it, but he can't.....yet. |

We're still alive and kicking up here. Budget proposal kills a 3rd missile field up here (what a waste to start something like that and not finish it) and freezes the number of GBI's we have (ie. no new ones added) All of that was in the paper in Fairbanks recently (ie open source) He's a retard of even bigger proportions if he kills us. |
