Osama wants nuclear war anyways
so lets give him a taste. Think of the backdrop
of a nuke with all those
mountains in winter....awesome.

Military aviation at its finest hour (in terms

There are still some Mk 53s around and the B-2
hasn't ever dropped a
live one. :-)
I don't think the B-2 is certified for the B-53. The earth-penetrating
role is the B-61-11. Problem with hitting OBL with a nuke: unless you hit
the right cave, said cave makes a good fallout shelter. A B-61 or B-83 in
the cave mouth, however....

Yeah but a ground burst B53 would put the fear of God in him if it
didn't bury him or kill him :-) BTW I wonder if that B-61-11 comes
in a GPS version. (Don't know that a laser guided version would be
very fun :-) )
