 I wish we still had the Pershing II missiles. We could have placed them
 in northern Saudi Arabia on scud watch. When a scud would launch we locate
 the launch site with radar systems, feed coordinates into the Pershing and
 launch. This way the Patriots get the SCUDs and the Pershing get the
launchers. Would have been nice if the Pershing also had a thermal tracker.
 The thermal signature left by a scud launch on the launch site would be
 large.
