Guess it is time for CPSR and others to get out the old arguments against Star Wars and dust them off. I started my professional carrier in ABM work (a rotational) (with a basic patent) and it was hard then ; it is very very hard now and as far as I can tell the opponent has the clear edge. If it is accidental launch you are worried about then work out a secure destruct system during climb phase . These have been proposed and are feasible. If it intentional , hope for a very silly opposition and then maybe it will work. Anyway have fun with Laurens. Dave v
