The USS Lake Erie took it out. The ship has a couple of good websites that goes into it's history and a bit about the Battle of Lake Erie.

Now the Chi-coms are worried thinking this was an anti-satellite missile test. They SHOULD be worried now that they know we have the technology to destroy satellites, if necessary. GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!

Damn, I love the Navy and of course it was an anti-satellite missile test. It's not my first day on the beach.

We already demonstrated that in 1989 with a missle launched from an F-15, if I remembe (what I read) correctly.

Now Doc,
I have no reason not to believe our government when they said they destroyed the satellite because it contained dangerous chemicals. Don't go starting rumors. :whistling:

Like skeet shooting with a rifle.

 

[Devil Doc]

Funny you should mention skeet. During WW II, accomplished skeet shooters were made anti-aircraft gun instructors.
