Rocket troops

The Ministry of Defense will purchase 10,000 badminton rackets. And hundreds of thousands of cartridges for them... that is, excuse me, shuttlecocks. Everyone, naturally, laughs and guffaws about the “strategic missile forces” that will destroy America with shuttlecocks across the ocean. And I thought... I thought... Maybe ten thousand badminton rackets and hundreds of thousands of shuttlecocks are more useful for the army than one Bulava missile? You can't reach America with a mace either.
