In the latest episode of “Military Madness,” India delivers to the Philippines state-of-the-art  cruise missiles.

What says “diplomatic goodwill” better than explosive armaments? At a cool $375 million, it’s like the world’s deadliest version of Secret Santa. But here’s the kicker: who guarantees that these missiles won’t fizzle out mid-flight like a defective firework? 

Imagine the scene: Filipino soldiers eagerly load up, only to watch in horror as their pricey projectiles perform a spectacular nosedive into the ocean. In the meantime, the enemy had already responded with firepower that works!

It’s like buying a fancy gadget, only to realize it’s a glorified paperweight. 

And the cherry on top? There’s no return policy for faulty warheads. The only way to test their efficacy is by pressing that ominous red button and hoping for the best. 

With this level of uncertainty, it’s a wonder if anyone’s still playing this deadly game of military Monopoly.
