More army blunders

The message about the Bear vs. Tank incident reminded me of something that
happened a few years back. I don't remember the name or call-letters/numbers 
of the machine in question, but there was an anti-aircraft gun that the
government stopped production on after spending just over a billion dollars
on it. It was designed to shoot down helicopters, and hence was programmed to
target rotating blades. During a test of the tageting system, it ignored all
of its intended targets, and zeroed in on a nearby bathroom exhaust fan. 
While the technicians attempted to abort the firing sequence, that wing of
the building was quickly evacuated.
