It quickly became apparent that their ability to breathe fire hinged on whether they had consumed anything flammable recently, and when our standard weaponry of gunpowder-based munitions proved ineffective, the heavy decision was made by leaders of the time to turn our nuclear armaments on these behemoths of the sky.
