When people are noting the flight time of some of these missiles it has me curious of the actual speed of the things. Commercial flights from Hawaii to Seoul clock in at around 8 hours....... I doubt these missiles are going 16 times the speed of a commercial jet. Four to five times faster, no problem; 16+ Times faster, I have my doubts.

Oops, it seems my doubts were wrong, lots of entries note that ICBM's clock in around 15,000 mph. I'll leave it up anyways.
