Live Air to Air Missle found in Lakeland FL airport

A live air-to-air, radar-guided missile was just discovered at the Lakeland Linder Airport in Florida, East of Tampa, and the airport was ordered to evacuate. We have analyzed the markings of the missile storage container and discovered this missile is a Matra R530F missile, which uses radar guidance and could be used to bring down Air Force One or a similar-sized airplane.

This is highly relevant to current events, given that a U.S. Air Force helicopter used to help provide security to President Trump during short flights was fired upon last week, causing an emergency landing to be initiated, after which one occupant required hospitalization, according to media reports.

It was a live air to air missile and useless without an aircraft to launch it from. Yes, it could blow up but it’s not like someone is going to throw it on their shoulder and fire it like it’s a LAW rocket at helicopters. That story has a lot of sensationalism written into it.

In certain extreme situations, the law is inadequate. In order to shame its inadequacy, it is necessary to act outside the law to pursue a natural justice.

Other media reports have confirmed that the Matra R530F missile was shipped into the United States via Amazon Air, which is an air cargo operation owned by Amazon, which is of course largely owned by Jeff Bezos who also owns the Washington Post

:iagree: Consider the source. The story says that the missile was "discovered" at the airport.
Looking at the picture, it seems like it would very be hard to hide. It's not like someone hid it their luggage or a carry-on bag.

Yeah, he forgot to load it back in the ship after the lions finally moved and he got the camo netting off. Colesmith-Briggs will have already made sure it can't be traced anyway..... :tiphat:
