[edit] Destructive Radius?

Er, atomic weapons don't have a destructive range of 6 miles, unless we are talking about breaking glass, so I doubt these flying bombs did. Shimbo 13:20, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Opinion?

I removed the following statement, as it seems to be opinion, not fact:

"About the only explanation for why this complex and unwieldy system was allowed to proceed is that this equipment appealed to the American love of technology, and the deficiencies that made themselves obvious during development were therefore simply ignored."

If it is a quote from somewhere, it should be sourced. Otherwise, it seems to be one person's opinion unbacked by any citations.
