Iran successfully tested a high speed torpedo capable of destroying large warships and submarines yesterday........

The torpedo, nicked name The Hoot can travel at 224mph (360kph), making it among the fastest underwater-missles in the world......

It is unknown whether it can carry a nuclear warhead....

Source - Metro newspaper.


Is this just a media hype thing or should we be worried as to the amount of Arms and Weapons this nation is developing? There's the issue of Nuclear/Atomic thing going on with the nuclear watchdog... Having said that most countries in the West are Nuclear armed anyway.

Should we be worried, as the leaders of this Nation dont seem to like what the West represent in terms of religion, freedom, democracy etc. The fact that they come out wiht some crazy comment about Israel and other nations they see as Zionist supporters?

Even if they manage to develop or have all these weapons, will they use it on us or Israel or any nation that fits their discription of an Infidel nation?

If only they'd nuke the train-wreck that is Iran.

Then we could wait a while and repopulate it with people who don't stone to death the victims of rape.

Hmm not a good idea.

The telegraph today says there not really designed for use on warships. But are better for taking out oil pipes and other oil related infastructure. sounds a bit weired though, why would you need a fast topedo to hit a stationary pipe. :confused:

Torpedo = Under water missile isnt?

Like Nix said, maybe it is just all a hype to keep the west at bay, but this begs the question - what have they got to hide?. :confused:
