The sheep (Operation Lamb Chop), were specialty units designed to operate at speeds of 90mph. Specially designed cockpits were in order as they could turn at top speed without bleeding any E.
The armament was specially designed dual 50 caliber chain guns, with a firing rate of 200 rounds/sec.
The rounds wre stored in a manner which allowed the sheep to carry up to 15,000 rounds.
A newly designed radar jamming system was fitted so they could not be detected by the enemy.
Pilots were warned of being careful as going over hills or drop offs could flip the sheep unit over. Water also had very interesting effects, as it would reduce the friction of the motion system and cause the sheep to launch into a break-dancing manuever.
During deployment, it was advised pilots should have consumed at least 2 shots of Udie's tequila, as to relax the pilot and to keep the sheep from getting hyper.
We are happy to say the sheep pulled the wool over the enemies eyes and earned a place in history along side of the "pet rock"
.
However, after review, the use of the Wooled Attack Unit will have to be terminated for the following reasons:
1) The shearing and cleaning of the wool is too time consuming.
2) Too many pilots were allergic to the wool seats.
3) The high COG made it too easy to tip over the unit.
4) Problems with other sheep trying to mount it caused high degrees of stress in the pilot.
5) Due to the compact size of the unit, the pilot suffered from high degrees of vibration while firing the chain gun. Many came back missing most of thier teeth.
6) There is no safe aspect view of the unit to minimize the target size.
7) The wool would occasionally catch on tree limbs and stop the unit cold in its tracks.
8) The physcological impact on the enemy was not nearly as effective as planned. Instead of fear,..the enemy laughed too hard, raising the morale. Unacceptable.
9) The unit had a tendency to draw other sheep to it, which served to unmask the stealth capabilities.
Overall performance was rated as fair. The unit has officially been disbanded,
