CHDT... the plane firing rocket from ground.....

Was that test of anti-balloon or was it test of new WWI highly mobile Katayushka! ;-) Shhh, secret weapon! We make bigger rockets next! LOL!

Really though at airspeed there wouldn't be any big cloud of smoke and the head won't blow till the rocket is done burning will it? Or did the heads even blow? All it had to do was pierce the balloon with that trail of burning sparks coming out the back. Why make em range-specific with a timed det?
