cannot be verified as being an exact match to the Sunburn. No one knows how well these perform except the Russians who tested them. American can only guess...and one question...do you want to be on an American ship when the Sunburns start to fly. Put your "faith" where your mouth is. If you believe they are no threat...you would have ABSOLUTELY no worry about stating, publicly, that you'd be willing to be on the deck of the USS Nimitz when the Sunburns, Yakhonts, and Exocets start flying. I'd like to see some documented proof of actual 'results' of your Trillions spent on countermeasures...because, so far, it seems the Sunburns and Yakhonts are unstopabble.

The enemy doesn't play by your 'traditional war' rules. If you can't fight a modern war, the army is useless. The U.S. Army cannot successfully run an occupation. Brute force cannot convince an occupied people to not resist. Brute UNEDUCATED force cannot understand the cultural and political nuances to pacify dissent and resistance. This is why in Iraq we're failing miserably. We broke everything "traditionally", and then didn't know how to address the problems that came after. and when, inevitably, insurgents sprung up, we had no other solutions but to resort to abusive raids into civilian homes, thereby digging our initial hole deeper, and deeper, and deeper.

Your faith in your armed forces is very misplaced. By the way, what you doing here in the U.S. of A? Shouldn't you be enlisted? They need you, soldier!
