USA did never try an ICBM with a conventional warhead in any war

When USA starts wars in the region they always try all kinds of weapons, for example in wars on Iraq they launched cruise missiles from submarines, they used B2 stealth bombers flying from Whiteman AFB , USA directly.
My question here: Did you ever see USA trying during the war a single ICBM missile with a conventional warhead ?, an ICBM which suppose to go into space in one stage like the peacemaker?  You did not see and you will never see. Also Iraqi Scud missiles does never go into space.

There are no such things as ICBM'S. There are ballistic missiles that can go up to a certain height and fall back to the ground in a arc however many miles away before the fuel is spent.
All this TV stuff where missiles fly horizontally over the sea and land, dodging mountains and what not, then home in on the target, are just that, TV fantasy.

These submarine ballistic missiles are another pile of horse manure. Ejected by air pressure from a tube and suddenly jump out of the water - ignite - and off to the target thousands of miles away. What a crock of jelly beans.

We, as people are kept scared of this stuff. We are made to feel helpless and in fear of all this stuff.
I'm sure the experts will tell me it's all real and above board as their will be some submarine captains on here or nuclear silo operatives, etc that will tell me I'm delusional.

Be because it belongs elsewhere and you don't know the difference between a cruise missile and an ICBM.

Let me guess.
Is an ICBM a missile that goes super high and arcs all the way to it's target on another continent?
Is a crusise missile , a missile that does the mountain dodging stuff with it's little wings and fuel filled body?

It's what I gathered from TV.

I was in the Navy for 15 years. I was stationed on the USS Louisville in the Gulf during Desert Storm. The Louisville was responsible for launching many Tomahawk cruise missiles against Iraq.

But I guess I was just brainwashed into believing I was actually there.

Of course you weren't brainwashed. You're simply not being honest with me.
If you prove me wrong, I will apologise, so lets have some questions about your submarine and these tomahawk missiles.

Try not to look it up on google, as 15 years sub experience should allow you to reel this stuff off in seconds.

First question.
How deep is the hull of your sub from floor to top, excluding the conning tower?

No idea off the top of my head.

I was a radar operator, I didn't design the sub.

I had three years of sub experience. I was in the Navy for 15 total.

I didn't expect you to fall apart after the first question.  ;D
Didn't you get any low down on the sub you were on. You know , like people do if they go onto a craft. They get briefed on it and take a course on how it all works- dimensions, etc. Did they just sling you on it and say, "there's your spot - look at that sceen with blips on." ...?

Google it then and tell me the depth of the hull minus the conning tower.

I did six months of training before being assigned to the sub. You get schooled in every part of the sub and get the "low down" on all of it.

But that doesn't mean that over 20 years later..........every man on the sub is going to remember the hull depth off the top of his head.

How does his not knowing details about the submarine's structural design make him a liar and falling apart?  Your logic is astounding  ::)

Ok, no problem. It sort of negates your attempt to shut me down by telling me you were on a sub that launched tomahawk missiles, doesn't it?
You're not willing to give me any details to back up your claim and can't recall anything about the subs dimensions. It reeks, to me.

Go and take a look at a V2 rocket then tell me it went into space. You are not this naive.

Because I don't know the hull depth? How does that negate anything?

I can give plenty of details. I just don't know the height of the hull.

The Louisville is a Los Angeles class submarine. It is a nuclear powered submarine. I believe it weighs over 6000 tons and is 350 feet long. That's the best I can do with structural info off the top of my head.

It is typically stationed in San Diego. In the Gulf War we traveled from San Diego to the Gulf in the sub and the Louisville was the first sub to launch a Tomahawk on Iraq.

Yes you can. Just look at what fuel it is releasing and the size of it. It would be a dud before it got a few miles up.

At a guess, how deep would you say the hull was? I mean you've obviously toured it so you must be able to guess.
I mean a school teacher could guess the height of a ceiling to floor, roughly. I'm sure you can estimate roughly.

Here's your tomahawk sub launch. It must be as scary as hell for those bad guys  not knowing this bad boy will home in on their land from the sea...unless it doesn't actually reach that is. I recall setting off a fire work rocket that went further than this.

I didn't realise they launched these tomahawks at an angle. Maybe some navy sub expert could put me right on this. Is there anyone on here that's had experinece on subs that launch tomahawk missiles?
