it's not the equipment that's the problem. its the dubious maintenance cycles.

a broken down tank, or a leaky redneck hot tub, isn't going to kill you.

Okay redneck tank was probably a bad example, but the redneck IED is still nothing to laugh at. Worst case scenario we use it a base for study, perhaps chuck it at anyone dumb enough to get near earth. Just give Ireland veto power it should be fine.
