And you don't want the missile to be too smart:
" What, you want me to fly up next to an H bomb and explode, are you out of you mind?!"

By the way something like this is in the very funny movie "Dark Star". For some reason the
movie flopped at the box office so for his next movie the fellow who wrote it ,Dan O'Bannon,
used basically the same plot but removed the humor, the result was the horror classic "Alien".
He said if "I can't make them laugh I'll make them scream".
