Superweapons of Ace Combat ( Part 1 )

Stone Henge

Featured in the PS2 game, Ace Combat 4: Shattered Skies, this superweapon is essentially an array of giant rail guns which was originally designed to take out asteroids on a collision course with earth, but was later captured and used as a massively powerful and long range anti-aircraft weapon. Having a range that can almost cover an entire continent, this seemingly invincible superweapon was capable of taking out large numbers of aircraft flying above 2000 ft over a large swathe of sky. As if one of them were not overkill enough, an array of 8 of them were created making it even more powerful than otherwise. The area surrounding the weapon itself is littered with AA guns and SAM sites, and it even has an airbase for the deployment of interceptor fighter jets. It's failure was that a small group of fighters, flying below 2oooft, in almost zig-zagging and random flight paths, would have been capable of penetrating it's powerful attack volleys. It was eventually destroyed by a single Ace pilot in the game.

Back to blogging after extremely long hiatus

I cannot explain it, but somehow I suddenly felt this urge to blog again this fine Sunday afternoon after a long 'hiatus'. I do not know why, although I suspect that it is probably to procrastinate from my studies for my finals, HAHAHAHAH! But, I digress. In these recent months I feel that are a great deal many things happening to the world and to myself, what with my foundation studies in University coming to and end,campus politics,assignments completed, uncertainty in Malaysia's government, the financial crisis in the US, uncertainty of the global economy, the commodities boom, the global food crisis of 2008, oil being worth more than US$100 per barrel.

I feel that in these potentially trying times and period of great personal growth, I need to document my thoughts in this online journal, so called "Blog". In any case, look forward to posts from me in the weeks and months to come.
