JASSM launch Video

Just watched that again. You really don't want to screw with Americans. They have some sort of fetish for weapons and making them do cool things!

What most of you probably didn't realize about many of these shots is that the JASSM is penetrating concrete for an extended period of travel before detonating! That means these Lockheed Engneers designed this thing to withstand extremely high G impacts surviving without deactivating the kill vehicle! It still works after an extremely high G impact, penetrating, and then it is going off like a bat out of hell!

I'll give it this - Americans are creative with their weaponry! Never seen something like this in video!
