- Fire a missile at it *where*? I've come in at 70 feet and shot the
- conning tower and the hull, no luck. I've also landed on the damn
- thing, turned around, and blasted the conning tower point blank. I
- even tried taxiing onto the elevator thinking that maybe, just maybe,
- I'd descend into the beast and could destroy it from the inside in a
- fit of suicidal bravery. So WHERE do you have to hit it? And which
- kind of missile do you have to use, or does it matter?
