now, about that NewSpeak you found -- the one that change the word "ballistic"
to "guided" without changing the word, AND the one that changes the word
"intercontinental" to "short range" without changing the word ...

You're too funny Jax. According to your strict definition, a bullet is
not ballistic either since it's guided by the gun barrel for the initial
portion of it's flight and travels in a straight line, not a ballistic
flight path, for that portion of it's journey to the target.

Well, an ICBM is just like a bullet. It's guided for the initial
portion of it's trip to the target and follows a ballistic trajectory
for the final portion. The only difference is that the bullet's
guidance system is the barrel and the ICBM's is an inertial navigation
system or now GPS.

JaxSpeak is certainly a strange language. Are you now going to try and
claim that a bullet fired from a gun is not ballistic since it's guided
by the barrel?

Steve

yeah, geocities.

Well, at least we now know that you know you were wrong when you said he
made that quote up. But since you don't like geocities, how about these
for starters:

http://www.af.mil/factsheets/factsheet.asp?fsID=113

LGM-30 MINUTEMAN III
Primary Function: Intercontinental ballistic missile
Guidance systems: Inertial system



http://www.strategic-air-command.com...eacekeeper_Mis
sile_Home_Page.htm

Peacekeeper
Primary function: Intercontinental ballistic missile
Guidance system: Inertial

...the MX's extremely accurate guidance--an inertial system capable of
being updated in flight by signals from navigation satellites...

Damn Jax, if you were only smart enough to do a google search on "ICBM
navigation system" you'd realize how wrong you are.

Steve

shen, you don't seem to have enough intelligenc to be able to figure out
--
on
your best day -- that eric made that quote up.

You're hilarious. First, you don't even know who you're responding to.
And second, if you actually had enough "intelligenc" to do a google
search you'd see that he didn't make it up at all, that it's a verbatim
cut'n'paste from he

http://www.geocities.com/minuteman_missile/specs.htm

So tell me again how ICBMs have no navigation system...

Steve

Minuteman ICBM Technical Specifications:

Guidance:

Improved NS-20 (INS-20) gimbaled inertial guidance system
manufactured by Autonetics Division, Rockwell International. The bus,
or post-boost vehicle, is maneuvered by six pitch and yaw motors, and
four smaller roll motors. Current plans are to retrofit the existing
force with the gimballess AIRS (advanced inertial reference sphere)
developed for the Peacekeeper (MX) missile. This will increase
accuracy to 330ft (100 m), comparable to the Peacekeeper.

Jax is too funny. Now he's trying to convince people that the inertial
navigation system in ICBMs that guide them to "aim towards a target as
they lift off" (his words) is not a navigation system.

Talk about not even knowing English as a language.

Ah, I see. So then since the ICBMs are in the silos pointing
straight
up and they have no navigation system, then the only thing they could
ever possibly hit is the silo that launched them. Very good. You
nailed that one too.

who said that couldn't be programed to turned to aim towards a target
as
they
lift off. Who said that was a "navigation" system.

dumb cluck. don't even know English as a language.

\Bal*lis"tic\, a. 1. Of or pertaining to the ballista, or to the art of hurling
stones or missile weapons by means of an engine.


ballistic

adj : relating to or characteristic of the motion of objects moving under their
own momentum and the force of gravity; "ballistic missile"

Neither of those definitions preclude an ICBM from having a navigation
system since they are obviously only ballistic for a portion of their
flight path, not the entire path. Just like a bullet or hurling stone
or missile weapons, all of which are ballistic weapons but do not follow
a path strictly under their own momentum and the force of gravity for
the entire trip. They all have to get started somehow. The way you are
limiting their motion, all they could do is fall when dropped.

Face it Jaxie, even though it's obvious you are only arguing for the
sake of argument, you can't even do that effectively.

Steve

schlackoff, do no attempt to write English here. use your native language
only. English is beyond you.
