    Devine Strake.....

    BOOM!!

    Berlin (AFP) – The German FA’s (DFB) inquiry into the 2006 World Cup scandal is set to cost around 3.5 million euros ($3.83m), interim


    Sounds like it's designed for cracking Iranian nuclear bunkers

      Probably to not trigger "nuclear blast alert"/"nuclear launch alert" in Russia and all the procedure...

        Exactly. This test will be taking place in the old US nuclear test range and they don't want the Russians thinking it's a nuclear test....esp. it their satellites picked up the mushroom cloud after detecting a huge seismic event in that area.

            Divine strAke AZ....not strike.

            Def: strake

            1. part of a boat or ship. It is a strip of planking in a wooden vessel or of plating in a metal one, running longitudinally along the vessel's side, its bottom or between them on the turn of the bilge.

            2. a device for controlling air flow over an aircraft.

            3. a tool for tamping down and levelling semi-fluid materials into a mould.

            Divine Strake isn't a system name, but instead one of those test names like used during the nuclear tests. It's the culmination of a 3 test series (Alpha, Discrete Gemini and Divine Strake) as part of the Hard and/or Deeply Buried Target Defeat Capability (HDBTDC) program.

              How could I be sure with you spelling it devine in the first place? I admit my mistkae though, sorry I got a bit worked up. I still don't understand why it must be called "divine", though.
