One must first detect a fleeting mobile or moving target, decide that it is worthy of destruction, select the missile to be fired against the target, compute ballistics for the flight, and prepare the missile for firing.

Therefore, if the target can significantly change its location in something less than 30 minutes, the probability of having destroyed it is drastically lowered.

Even if this is some day possible, there remains the 30-minute time of flight of a missile to its overseas target.

If the target can change its position significantly during the 30 minutes the missile is in the air on its way, the probability of the missile destroying the target is drastically reduced.

Weight training does allow tremendous flexibility in exercises and weights which can allow bodybuilders to target specific muscles and muscle groups, as well as attain specific goals.

Such an attack is made more difficult by systems such as early warning radars which allow the possibility for rapid recognition and response to a nuclear attack and by systems such as submarine-launched ballistic missiles or road-mobile nuclear missiles ( such as the Soviet SS-20 ) which make nuclear weapons harder to locate and target.

The idea was for Japanese probes and the pre-existing American probe International Cometary Explorer to make long distance measurements, followed by the Russian Vegas which would locate the nucleus, and the resulting information sent back would allow Giotto to precisely target very close to the nucleus.

Firing at a moving target requires aiming ahead of the target ( which involves the so-called lead angle ) to allow for the time the bullets require to reach the vicinity of the target.

To allow the operator to monitor the Blindfire system when it is tracking the target, the existing optical tracker is slaved to the Blindfire radar, although it is possible for the optical tracker to be manually " laid on " a second target whilst the Blindfire engages the first target.

That operation reflected the typical attitude held by Air Guard aviators, especially A-10 pilots, who believed that when ground troops needed help, the pilots would remain as long as possible to “ lay it on the line more and expose themselves more over the target area .” Even when the Rangers were not taking enemy fire, the A-10s provided cover so the Rangers could catch a few hours of sleep.

However, the unrolled scan can only target a limited number of locations, and is unlikely to catch a small opponent.

The catch is that since there are multiple JVM implementations, on top of a wide variety of different operating systems such as Windows, Linux, Solaris, NetWare, HP-UX, and Mac OS, there can be subtle differences in how a program may execute on each JVM / OS combination, which may require an application to be tested on various target platforms.
