    To be fair, it is a Japanese whaling ship.

      they would simply be able to overwhelm the monster with numbers

      Such Military genius. Reminds of another quote I heard once:

      You see, Killbots have a preset kill limit. Knowing their weakness, I sent wave after wave of my own men at them, until they reached their limit and shutdown.
      Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!

        I'm curious as to why conservatives who despise government waste get all hard about the military having a plan (so says the OP - not sure if the military actually has a formal plan there) to defeat a giant radioactive monster? :cute"

          Do nerd threads need a political justification to exist? Seriously. It's like asking me why I find the Imperium of Man interesting given my preference for a limited government.

            The difference is that the Imperium of Man doesn't exist yet. (The Emperor is still wandering around Anatolia or something.)

              Maybe they should.

                I wouldn't think it would matter. Flesh and bone is still flesh and bone, no matter the size.

                Are you saying, for instance, that a blue whale would just shrug off being hit by a cruise missile?

                      No, but I've seen clips and such, where Godzilla seemed unaffected by cruise missiles. But you were talking about his size though (he's a multi-ton beast) as if that makes him impervious to cruise missiles.

                          If he is a product of radioactivity he may be sterile. Maybe that is why he is always so pissed off?

                              In the trailer they show him as being considerably bigger than a frigate. Back in the day of Desert Storm we had lazer guided bombs up to 1000 pounds in weight, I'm pretty sure that would blast away enough flesh to kill him. OTOH an Apache gunship's 30mm chaingun would probably be sufficient to blind him and maybe penetrate the skull.

                                The A-10 would have been the perfect platform for combating Godzilla.
