Can we use it to launch a few cruise missiles at some choice locations?

Even better would be if the missiles were made of some of the same salvaged steel.

Hail it, and send it! Let our foks use that vessel with the remembrance she deserves...and may she raise the morale of all of ours that see her...and project fear in the ones that oppose her.

Cheers :cheers2:

P.S. I LOVE that we recycled all that death and destruction into an awesome vessel. Perfect!

She is a Phoenix reborn from the ashes. May she protect us from those who wish to destroy us. and wreak havoc on those who try.
