"Thankfully, the French regularly practice rapid redeployment"

aka RUN!!!!!!!

 

[mpmarty]

I don't understand

what's so funny? Isn't that how the french missiles all work, except for the exocet which I beleive they stole from someone else?

 

[MJZZZ]

The French practice "rapid redeployment" run, run, and run. Always have, and always will.

 

[Wes Janson]

Someone said those were Canadians in the comments?

Does that system have a minimum distance fuse safety? One would think it wise, for a weapon designed to launch like that.

This clip comes from Al Jazeera - it's on an ad for the Zarqawi Arms factory's Martyr's Brigade Model XZ - otherwise known as the Suicide Bomber Special. They also sell an engraved model with 'Death to America!' or 'Death to Isreal!' written on the side in gold letters - your choice for a hundred bucks extra.

That's an ERYX, and when our military is allowed to shoot real missiles it's because the missiles are near or already expired.

 

[Macchina]

I think that is the modern day land mine deployer. A little bit slower than the old ones, but it's much more accruate .

 

[nramember2]

That is their short range missile. They drop it in place, Run and when the enemy gets close enough, They detonate it with a remote. They just carry the other gadget to look not so French.

 

[Lucky]

The missile and launcher was a collaborative effort with France, too.

how much ya wanna bet the warhead was a dud too?

 

[Jamie B]

how much ya wanna bet the warhead was a dud too?

Of course it is! Why would the French need real weapons!?
Why would any arms dealer sell first quality goods to a county that would not use them!?
They all know that the French only need weapons that will shoot backwards to clear a retreat!

[Fosbery]

They're not French. They're Canadian.

 

[RTFM]

OMG, that was straight out of a cartoon. I needed that laugh this AM!!

 

[TheDisturbed1]

They're not French. They're Canadian.

Well, im sure it was a joint op dud-tester either way....

I'm sure the Canadians all speak french/english simontaniously on a regular basis.

Anyhoo... The Moral: Get a better rocket altogether.
good ol american engineering would have been all over that

 

[MD_Willington]

I'm sure the Canadians all speak french/english simontaniously on a regular basis.
