I guess I'll bow for this, weapons looked very effective to be 30mm
when I had a second look.
It still don't get it, looked like not moving much, this plain.

Draw a circle 1m in diameter. Now, using the same center point, draw a
circle 10m in diameter. From the center point, draw two straight line
that intersects both circles about 45-60 degrees apart.

Now, note the difference in distance along each of the circles between
your two intersections.

Now....Imagine the diameter of that circle is over 4000 m (2.5 miles)

Even at 240k/hr (150mph) you're not going to see much of a difference
in 3 minutes.


I drew the circles but they ended up making a happy face.

Then you did it right! Can you sit on the happy face?
