Someone mentioned earlier in this thread that it takes a week to program this tomahawks, that's absolutely ridiculous. It's akin to programming an auto-pilot with GPS coordinates on an airplane or a boat with a chartpolotter and similar autopilot with GPS (latitude & longitude) something that literally takes 10 to 15 minutes to do. They would be useless weapons to have on standby in patroling naval destroyers and submarines if that was the case.
Tomahawk works differently that is why the missile is so deadly and anti missile defense systems cannot catch it.
GPS guided weapons are not that precise but Cruise missiles can enter through a window and take a kill so they use different guidence system which requires extensive programming.
LOL did you really think? Well, welcome in the world of politics.

well , They was defeated by Muslims as well , but what happened then , they won and did Muslims rejoice it !? don't use Quran like this boy ...
Reporting now on U.S T.V channels.
Trump is an idiot to get us involved with that mess there. China and Russia don't care if they get gassed- why are we ...moron.

(CNN)The United States launched a military strike on Syrian government targets in retaliation for their chemical weapon attack on civilians earlier in the week, CNN is told.
On President Donald Trump's orders, US warships launched 50 Tomahawk cruise missiles.

It is being done every day due to every one pounding ISIS with air strikes but after Russia canceling the military line now it would be difficult to make a fly over above Syrian Air space.This is the second time that Air Defenses have been breached in Syria .
In 2015, November Russian Su 24 by the Turkish airforce which resulted in the death of Russian Pilot Lieutenant Colonel Oleg Anatolyevich Peshkov and now by the US Navy.
In 2012 , two-seat F-4 Phantom reconnaissance aircraft of Turkish Airforce was shot down by the Syrian after having briefly strayed into Syrian territory in the Mediterranean border region shared by Turkey’s Hatay Province and Syria’s Latakia Province. Turkish Pilots Gokhan Ertan and Hasan Huseyin Aksoy.

The US sailors should be on alert,if the rust bucket breaks and sinks so they can help the Russian sailorsRussian warship headed towards US Navy destroyers who launched Syria attack: Fox News
How do Tomahawks get their target and detect possible RADARs in their flight path and decide to avoid them. This all is done by extensive programing. The tomahawk flight path and targets can be changed but you need to have prior data about the area where the missile is going to attack. GPS guided missiles work in a kind of 2D environment where as cruise missiles work in 3D.Oldman1 beat me to it; if they can reprogram new target coordinates during the missile's flight, think of how fast that has to be and how fast they can program it pre-launch without a closing 'time to impact' and cruising @ 800km/h. DSMAC combined with global positioning satellite gives them real-time targeting. They can even chase fleeing targets.
Digital Scene Matching Area Correlator (DSMAC) and Global Positioning System (GPS) � which can significantly reduce mission-planning time and increase navigation and terminal accuracy. Tomahawk Block IV (TLAM-E) is the latest improvement to the Tomahawk missile family. Block IV capability enhancements include: (a) increased flexibility utilizing two-way satellite communications to reprogram the missile in-flight to a new aimpoint or new preplanned mission, send a new mission to the missile en route to a new target.

these so called rebels have been known to carry out chemical attacks against Syrian government troops in the past, these bastards live by the motto: 'war is deceit'
false flag !
Trump is being led astray by the neocons.
black and white as far as I'm concerned, you got the Syrian government and it's allies vs scumbag jihadi forces and their many backers in saudi/qatar/turkey,israel,nato,us.
I support the Syrian government and it's allies.
oh, and here's the Russian response:
Trump just blatantly behaved as Al Qaeda and ISIS' air force. I thought you were on the right side so how can you defend this?Russia s agressive policy works with a weakling in the White House but if the US decides to act,Russia will huff and puff but in the end will take it like a champ and do nothing.
