Usually I'd be hesitant to accept a submission that involves an army that's engaged in an active war, but after watching that video I'm more than happy to accept this. Shooting at a fuel and explosive filled missile from such a short distance is the height of stupidity as far as I'm concerned. Thanks, Cliff!
