Low Cost Cruise Missile
New Zealand engineer and inventor
Bruce Simpson spent last year pursuing a hobby idea. He realized that all the components of a cruise missile were available
Cheap and
Off
The
Shelf. Engineers call this C.O.T.S.
He then set about to build his own Cruise Missile whereupon the N.Z. Government came down on him like a tonne of bricks, basically going after everything he owns.
In
his website here, he is offering to travel to any country and build cruise missiles for anyone who wants them with the sole proviso that he will not work for any one planning or committing terrorist acts...
Interesting dilemma -- the technology
is out there and there are probably lots of other people doing the same thing but without the stir of media attention...
