How exactly did a computer virus do this?
I guess if they had a warhead mounted, and no mechanical safeties on it, I guess a hacker could trigger it - but they speak of the warhead going first, and then the rocket. How exactly did the virus turn all of the relatively slow burning propellant in the rocket, into high explosive? And how did it make a big enough blast to "...destroy everything within a 1/2 kilometer radius..."
If true, good for our side, but the article isn't plausible, as presented.
"...the designer of the .270 Ingwe cartridge!..."

If true, good for our side, but the article isn't plausible, as presented. I cannot argue whether you are right or wrong- not enough knowledge of the subject. I would say that this is all computer driven so if one had control of the computer isn't anything possible? And wasn't it the warhead that went first blowing up the propellant? Seems to me the guys answering the Craigslist Iran ad for "Missle control tech" might not know what they are getting themselves into.....HeHeHe

To bad it wasn't armed with a Nuclear War Head when it detonated

Israel has proven itself to have the will to do this if it wants to.
Remember the HARP cannon in Iraq?
"a Canadian scientist who developed the famed "Super Gun" for Iraq was killed by the Mossad at his Brussels apartment in March 1990, effectively halting the development of the Supergun project."

I'm thinking there's a couple of geeks in Virgina tilting back a couple of Rock Stars.
