Salute!
OK, time to get more investors here to contribute to Gums' Gear. Custom fishing rods, rod repairs, and neat stuff for fighting neat battles.
Besides the Thumper Buster, we also need to invest in some non-lethal weapons that won't kill so-called innocent civilians that had invited a well-known terrorist to have dinner....... ahem.
My favorite wingman and I developed a few conceptual weapons that were 1) effective, 2) environmentally friendly ( compared to nuke-u-lar weapons, our weapon of choice), and 3) CHEAP!!!!
1) One of the best was the "foam bomb".
We could use all those napalm cans that are slowly oxidizing out in the desert someplace. Each one holds over a hundred gallons of "stuff". So we load up a Viper with 6 of those things on TERs. Every other one has the catalyst, the others have the resin. When they impact, the chemicals mix, and presto!!!!
Ever use that stuff to make foam for filling your boat cavities? Or the stuff in a can to seal air leaks around your windows? maybe use 2 ounces to get a few cubic feet of foam. Hmmmmm. Got us thinking.
So we ripple over 600 humongous GALLONS of that stuff. Half in some cans, half in the other.
We then get this 100 foot pile of foam on the bad guys' a) runway, 2) SCUD launcher, 3) nuke-u-lar laboratory and 4) the house that invited a well-known terrorist to dinner. Is that great, or what!!??!!??
How are they gonna attack that foam. With axes? Front-end loaders? Blow it up with "leathal" ordnance? I dooooon't think so.
2) The "super glue" bomb.
This is an advanced version of the foam bomb. We drop it on aircraft shelter doors, missile silo hatches, houses that invite terrorists to dinner, cruisers/destoyers/PT boats. We can do all this with JDAMs, folks. And it would resemble a MOAB or FAE weapon in order to properly disperse the non-leathal agent on the target.
You can't taxi your jets, launch your nuke-u-lar missile, escape from the house while the terrorist is still inside, aim/fire your cruise missiles, etc from your boats.
Neat, huh?
As soon as we get our Pay Pal account going, I expect tons of $$$$ to roll in so we can get going on this 21st Century answer to CBU and napalm and noisy teenagers cruising the 'vard.

To follow on the "super glue" bomb you also need a follow up strike of dispenser units that release puppies and flowers, the cuteness glued to the terrorists will force them to see the errors of their ways.  |

| I always thought a nitrous oxide bomb would be effective. The army could advance, close with and kill or capture the bad guys while they are all giggliging like school kids. Just put it in CBU can, set it for an air burst of 50-100 feet and call it the "Crowd Pleaser" |

| for pure psychological and harassment effect the same napalm canisters could be filled with pigs guts and blood. Who knows what effect that would have one the same crowd so expertly described by Gums above. They would then all rush to the nearest waterhole for a bath... |

I personally like the foam and superglue ideas !!! Of course, it would be just great to add capsicum (pepper spray) or CN tear gas to the foam!
Here's another one - the epoxy bomb! The two parts would be mixed in the cannister prior to impact so that they'd set up while slimed all over everything!
Now, if we could just adapt the Thumper Buster to go after the enemy's comm nets !!! |

I like it. I wonder if the UN would bitch at us for using chemical weapons? |
