Hovering Multiple Kill Vehicle

Postby rattler » Wed Dec 10, 2008 11:46 pm

Earlier this months, a prototype payload was tested at Edwards Air Force Base in California. And the result, as Ares notes, was something that looked like the target droid that "zapped a blindfolded Luke Skywalker during lightsaber training." _
-snip- "The MKV ... is being designed as a way to intercept and destroy all objects from a single ballistic missile -- warhead, countermeasures, booster debris, etc."
