Remember when Dems ridiculed Reagan's missile defense as Star Wars - imagine where we might be without that obstruction!

We need to put investment into defenses immediately and continue to evolve the system as potential foes develope autonomous glide vehicles etc. Although the systems can handle multiple targets, effectiveness against a barrage isn’t there yet.

So right now besides close range interceptors we have the GMD system with abysmal 55% intercept rate, our Aegis system deployed on ships with 83% hit rate, and THAAD with 100% rate. So we have gaps, particularly in the middle altitudes & at home. Hopes & dreams are t enough

In closer engagements like S Korea protection from north, defenses have proven more robust. The THAAD system has been proven potent thus far. Since starting testing again in 05’ they’ve had 100% intercept up to medium range icbms and multiple barrage (5 at once)

Our missile defense system (GMD) for the homeland has not been very successful. We have had success in only 10 of 18 tests in space based intercept and I’m not sure how close the test vehicles mimicked advanced weapons with active counter measures. It’s a serious problem.

Does anyone understands a defensive system! Whether it be rocks first used as a defensive system, to today’s anti ICBM missile, they can only defend for a brief time. Our missile defense can only counter a few launches. Afterwards, they are monuments to the stupidity of mankind

Is there one political group that's made every possible effort for the last 30 years to keep us from developing an effective missile defense?

Given the lack of funds allocated in the Obama admin, I am very afraid! An EMP could easily destroy our entire country with one bomb from NoKo and another from Iran,set off a hundred miles in the air, Read, “ One Second After”....could happen any day.
