True, HOWEVER, it WOULD be light enough to be deployed on a 182 as a bomb. ... Now we just need to get that MOU with NORAD.

... I think this would be the ultimate in HLS Border Security Missions.

Since we are now talking about two weapons, which are you talking about above?

As for the HELLFIRE, it arms electronically after leaving the launcher, so using it as a bomb wouldn't work.

I wouldn't want to be within 25 miles of the Crocket when it explodes.

The Crockett. The only trick is to have some altitude when we drop the thing. Otherwise the Enola Gay would have been blown out of the sky at Hiroshima. True we dont fly as high as a B-29 Stratofortress BUT this is a smaller bomb.
