Shooting Down Cruise Missiles.

Here’s a little tongue-in-cheek video I put together last week. Three minutes of chasing cruise missiles and flying bombs. No special effects; just Lock On in the raw.

 

What’s the connection between the Russian Kh-65 cruise missile and the English county?

That's an easy question as "Kent" is just across the River Thames from Essex where I live now. Also Kent is where most V-1 flying bombs (the forerunner of cruise missiles) ended up.

BRD, correct answer. Someone tried to tell me that the Kh-65 was named after Superman's earthly moniker, which I didn't believe for a minute.
