Doesn't matter--the claim by Lebed, which these folks have apparently
latched onto, was that we were talking "suitcase bombs", not arty
rounds.

And we've solidly established that the smaller weapons would easily fit
into a moderately large suitcase. It would be a bit too heavy to put on
a plane without a "heavy luggage" sticker, but it would, most certainly,
go into something that a rational person would call a "suitcase."

My favorite piece of luggage, which has flown all over the place, is
three feet long, a foot thick, and two feet wide. *Two* of your
artillery rounds would fit into it... it would be heavy, but still quite
compact.

Well, you can climb into bed with the Lebed fans if you want. IMO, the story
has about as much reliability associated with it as the old "red mercury"
crap.
