Oh I remember some images a few years ago I saw that I thought you were refering to until you said plane.
These had a US missile hitting the pentagon. Might have been a link on MySpace I followed since I still hadn't used Fakebook yet with it's super boring pages all like the borg of the internet.
Yes, from the helicopter. Only a few seconds but it is clearly no where the size of a plane, it is a missile.
To my eyes it totally looks like a plane, it is the size of a plane and it flew at the speed of a plane.
A missile doesn't have wings so in order for it to fly horizontally it needs to have a lot more speed to vector the thrust. If they have cruize missiles the size of a 747 maybe, but there would be no point when you can just remote a 747 into the audit office of the pentagon.
I'm not saying it isn't possible, but that heli video totally got me to reconsider my original position.
Watch the mytbusters launch real rockets on sleds: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aSVfYwdGSsQ
The speed on the heli cam did not look like that at all to me. I could be wrong.
Yes, some missiles have wings. When it crosses the highway it isn't even as long as the highway is wide.
I mean i know it was a missile
it would be 10X faster
They said the plane was going 500mph+, and a missile can go slow as 700mph (that we know of)
