You need AA? Here's 17 launchers! NO MISSLES FOR YOU THOUGH!
It was a joke based off what OP said...
OP wasn't sure if they were sending the missles until they read the article.
I made a what I thought was funny comment about how they were only going to send the launchers, and fuck the missles.
Edit: also in format of NO SOUP FOR YOU, but I should have left the "though" off for that.
No he wrote launchers or batteries. He meant if they were all complete systems with both launchers and radar/command module, which they are.
It has nothing to do with missiles.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IRIS-T
So 3 launchers capable of firing 8 missiles each, and 1 command module per system.
The command module can track all 24 missiles simultaneously.
So this is a pretty big deal.
Are you that daft?
It was a joke about how stupid it would be to only be launchers.
OP wasn't sure and had to verify for us.
I think it's more your joke that was daft, nobody said anything about it ONLY being launchers, and nobody found you joke funny.
Also you make a post where you still don't get it, even after I explained the setup to you above.
