Fence post error
"The whole salvo took 224 seconds (3 minutes, 44 seconds) with a 14 second interval between launches." This is incorrect, an example of a Fence post error. 16 x 14 = 224, but product should be 15 x 14 = 210. Hamish59 (talk) 14:48, 10 January 2012 (UTC)

- "The whole salvo took 224 seconds (3 minutes, 44 seconds)."
