I,m only little ....look see ...I don,t do major damage really.... only well targeted pin pointed stuff " ....nothing for you to worry about....honest !! a good way for their use to be quietly introduced and excepted on a global scale......NOTHING would surprise me with the idiots running the show......from any side........ most of which are to dumb to have a headache

Yes, as I understand it, these could simply be cruise missiles with nuclear war heads, which is probably the type of weapons being carrier by the Tupolev Tu-95 (Russian Bear's) which keep testing UK airspace/reaction times.

I think both are available there are still plenty of the old ICBM's sat in underground silo's or in the case of the Russians mounted on lorries and on trains!
