well, see, you're being hit with something traveling 14,400 km/hr at a temperature of over 4000°F. I doubt you'd live long enough to really feel anything at all.

so narbus, i take it then, in your professional opinion, iraq does not have a rail gun, and even if they did, it would be largely useless.

not a rail gun, rather a super gun, but it was demolished during gulf war 1.
Whenever death may surprise us,
let it be welcome
if our battle cry has reached even one receptive ear
and another hand reaches out to take up our arms.


Nobody's gonna miss me, no tears will fall, no ones gonna weap, when i hit that road.

Basically, yeah.

Really, at 6.5 million amps, the sheer cost of using it would greatly outweigh whatever damage it could do. You'd be better off just buying regular ol' bombs.
