Original Note:
The AGM144 R9X does not “shoot out” blades. The inert 45 pound warhead includes six fixed blades. As a precision weapon it is designed to target specific persons without harming anyone nearby. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/AGM-114_Hellfire https://www.reuters.com/world/little-known-modified-hellfire-likely-killed-al-qaedas-zawahiri-2022-08-02/ http://www.dupuyinstitute.org/blog/2022/08/03/hellfire-r9x/
