    I guess that's what they mean when they say you should stay flexible. I never went into the "Adjust Fire" mode with that type of round before.

    As the Actress said to the Bishop -- she was a Howitzer fan.

    The 155mm had a 100t yield IIRC. With the 203mm you had dial-a-yield. Or assemble a yield, actually and got from three kt to 40 kt. A 40kt airburst EMP would knock out every unprotected electronic device within a healthy radius with a 1,600' or more airburst. Make a few people sick, too...
