If a government (any) could build and operate these type of aircraft - what would be their purpose?

That is what I cant figure out.

perhaps they want to go down in history, or they are so bitter and resentful they want to take others down. Like kids who do school shootings..

Have you read up on polyphasic sleep?

I haven't tried it, but it does seem it is physically possible to sleep much less than 7-8 hours per 24 hour cycle.

That is good, but it is besides the point.

Aus post (australia post) is the worst, especially this time of year.
