Is this a disabled ammo carrier or did someone misunderstand the weapon's proper set up procedure?

Just great! The designer must have overloaded it during deploy.

Its a Talibomb MK1a-ss rocket Launcher platform, this was a fabulous siege weapon during the Middle Ages. Very modern for Afghans usage. <img src="biggrin.gif" border="0">

You guys are so blind! Don't you see it? The donkeys work so well in AAA defense, that what you are seeing is deployment of a new radar-proof fighter defense, elsewise why the airborne donkey? The only problem with this new design, apparently, is that it's a bit of a kamikazi ME163 design, which propels the donkey and whatever weapons he has towards the Bush carrotkrieg air attack. I better tell the Pentagon about this. How can they stop donkeys which are airborne, when carrot missiles fall to the ground?

Wouldn't the airborne donkeys follow the carrotmissiles towards the ground and crash? Or do you mean the anti-carrot missiles to clear the donkey-motivating carrot fields?

So if he unloads those 18 boxes, then tries to reload them, only 13 will fit (like a JA A squad)?

No, only if they has Superman's eyes. Since the carrot missiles are faster than planes they cannot be identified for what they are until the missile hits the ground (unless of course it gets lodged in Bugs Bunny's hole, which in that case would be a dud because the even the ground-based donkey couldn't see it). Also, since the carrot can be only spotted on the ground, the airborne donkey is likely too far away to see it anymore, and certainly cannot see a speedy carrot missile. This could be devastating! You'll remember the carrotkrieg was initially designed only to deal with the ground donkey AAA.

Has anyone stopped to think what's going through that donkey's mind at that moment? Some reference to #!*%#!* humans, perhaps? <img src="biggrin.gif" border="0">

Jackk: I think your logonid being Jack is rather fitting for this thread.

Actually the radar-invisible donkey ME163 could be used dual-purpose (Psst - don't let them know this!!!). What I mean is they could deploy those things as pictured, but just tie the donkey to the end of an artillery gun instead. What this would accomplish, if spotted, would be to make the artillery look like the radar-invisible donkey ME163 before it took off, thereby using artillery for decoys when Bush would inevitably try to strike them on the grpund before they took off on their devastating mission.

I'm just afraid that ny the time we've come up with a counter, they will have countered that, because we now see how quickly they countered the carrotkrieg carrot missile with this. When we see donkeys tied to the end of artillery pieces, we'll have further proof of what a tenacious enemy we're up against.

No, you lads have it all wrong. As the discoverer of the original Donkey AAA, I speak with some authority here.

My contacts at M8 Special Branch tell me that this is the recent Taliban mod of the Donkey AAA to deal with the American AH64 attack helicopters in the (wait for it now ...)"Pop-up Mode". In addition to the backside missle launcher, note the Chemical Weapons ejector tube, just there between the rear landing gear. This feature, of course, doesn't work well on some female models.

Nuff said, nudge-nudge, wink-wink, Cheerio!
