at least one postulated use for the blimps is "look-down" radar to spot incoming cruise missles. there's been a lot of concern about those and since they fly so close to the ocean surface, the only way to see them on radar is looking down from above. -mo ------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- You are subscribed as lists-ip () insecure org To manage your subscription, go to http://v2.listbox.com/member/?listname=ipArchives at: Archives: http://archives.listbox.com/247/
