solid fuel missiles...

In anticipation of Bertil's counter that we should develop some solid
fuel missiles with only a few G-hours of delta-V, as a cheap
alternative, I point out the following:

	For a 150Kg dry mass (warhead, electronics, structure, NO fuel), a
missile with ONE G-hour delta-V requires 70,936,947Kg of the best solid
fuel we make today.  A TWO G-hour missile requires 33.547 BILLION TONS
of fuel.
	So don't waste a lot of time with solid fuel missiles for TNE.
