Mohan:
I just finished reading NYTimes Magazine. An article with a title" Get Ready, Here Comes EXOATMOSPHERIC KILL VEHICLE"
India needs EKV too more so now, because we have a rogue next door
U heard about Tomahauk, Stinger, Javelin, RAM, Maverick, HARM but not EKV - Exoatmospheric Kill Vehicle.
EKV flies thro' space at 4,500 miles per hour.
EKV costs $20-25 million each, weighs 120lbs, 52" long.
EKV, when launched, will kill the target misssile in a bullet-bullet collision fashion - I call it nose to nose.
EKV is billed as an answer to MAD - Mutually assured destruction. simply put: U nuke us, we nuke U.
EKV stops MAD at the first strike phase of MAD. So U don't have to go mad after the 1st strike and get even or go for SSAD - Second Strike Assured Destruction.
EKV genesis reason: Rogue to Rogue sale of missiles. Missiles in rogue hands can be fired at America.
EKV's target nations: Russia & China as expected. Rogue nations are N.Korea, Iraq, Iran. (my notes Hello there Pakistan, Your name is not in. U sure are disappointed. Your missiles can't reach America. That is why your name is not on the list. But U are a nascent Rogue for America, but a real rogue in the eyes of India)
EKV has no value in World Trade Center type of terrorism
EKV will be tested on 093099: it has been postponed twice.
EKV's launch site: Kwajalein Missile Range in Marshall islands.
EKV's target launch site: Vandenberg Air Force Base CA.
EKV's job description: Smash the incoming missiles into smithereens.
Another weapon System konown as THAAD - Theater High Altitude Area Defence. Designed to destroy incoming missiles aimed at troops or cities outside US. THAAD is functional on tests. |
