Nor am I, but I think its best to leave these issues up to the military engineers in spite of what you would think.

That was supposed to be the opening for a military engineer, structural engineer, or military person to set me straight.

Given our location, I was hoping one of the many local people in the know might be able to wade through the bickering and let us know for sure.

Why exactly do we need to build a weapon to hit something 180' underground?

I'm no military engineer, but I would think a MOAB (or 2) ought to do enough damage to shut any facility down - especially in a country that has such infrastructure and civil problems they can't get food or power to areas on the surface.

Or maybe a suicide bomber could wander in there - judging by the last election tehre might be a volunteer or 2 ;-).

I'm thinking about missile silos in mountainous regions that might be largely underground and well protected.

We do have a couple, most people would crap if they found out who. ;-)
