al Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri

RX9... AKA "ninja bomb"

That is fascinating
All in a effort to avoid bad PR, but heck, if there are less civilians killed… seems better

This Air to Ground (AGM) 114 Hellfire missiles are subsonic missiles and have significant anti-tank capacity. The missile used by the US, on August 2, is a warhead-less missile and it is equipped with six razors like blades. And it is these blades that killed the al-Qaeda head


Warhead-less!


I’m sure it will make an appearance in some action flick soon

subsonic?  conflicting info... per a talking head on CNN this morning this hellfire is faster than the speed of sound - thus contributing to its stealth, since you can't hear something coming at you if its supersonic. 

technically a missile must have a warhead so the RX9 isn't a missile, it's a kinetic weapon.  and yes, that's rather academic.

What, an awful story.  There's nothing good, about it.

Issey Miyake
this was an interesting footnote
