     @tyler the choices aren't "satellite" and "inertial", there are a bunch of options
     
     the US went all in on GPS, doesn't mean everyone else did. especially since everyone knows we can fuck with signals

     @deprecated_ii @tyler plus any guided weapon from a major industrial power these days has multiple redundant guidance logics and can error check between em. Everyone knows GPS/glonass/whatever the Ching Chong weibu one are the first things to get jammed if someone is retarded enough to start The Big One

     @tyler yes, they miss their targets half the time with GPS working and Iran doesn't have them
     
     don't need satellite guidance to make a reasonably precise strike at the distances involved here
