Then use "the rod from God" It will look like a meteorite. [""""""The idea is that the weapon would inflict damage because it moves at orbital velocities, at least 9 kilometers per second. Smaller weapons can deliver measured amounts of energy as large as a 225 kg conventional bomb.[citation needed] Some systems are quoted as having the yield of a small tactical nuclear bomb.[5] These designs are envisioned as a bunker buster.[4][7]""""""""] The last time I listened to a pitch on kinetic weapons the energy was expressed in ergs. It really sounded impressive, but I later converted the energy into Ft lbs and found they were talking about the destructive power of an eight inch shell that does not explode. Not impressive at all. You do realize that a 225 kg conventional bomb is a 500 lb bomb. More powerful than my example , but still not very powerful. Would not seriously damage a bunker. Dan |
