    No, I was not thinking about this as nuke UU, I was thinking of it as of "highly mobile all-terrain artillery vehicle" or the SCUD launcher (as it's called).
    SCUDs can be used for multiple types of payload - from conventional to nuclear and biochemical.

    Nukes are only optional when you have the prereqs for them.

      Indeed. The Indian war elephant was encountered by Alexander's army, and his successor Seleucus valued them so highly he was prepared to give Eastern provinces to Chandragupta for 500 elephants.

      And of course we have them to thank for the rook in chess and the Elephant and Castle shopping centre in south London.....
