As usual and as is the culture here, loads of people would have benefitted financially. All of them will be connected, so no proper investigations and convictions.

Why can posters not stick to the topic in hand?

It has nothing to do with corruption in other countries!

DragonFire has been tested in real time!

The article is about the weapon system and the potential speeding up the horrendously lengthy UK military procurement procedures!

  • Just what the Ukrainians need. Now.

  • In three years? Maybe three years too late. Will the Royal Navy have any manned ships in three years? A report I read recently said that crews could not be mustered to man the Destroyer support ships

I remember back in the Regan years the star wars project lasers killing missiles ect ended up being a big porker of a contract from what I remember.that being said computers have evolved big time smaller faster ect ect perhaps they have made progress with the lasers as well hope so!the idea of hitting a moving object with a (light) seems a simpler concept than hitting a moving object with another object let’s hope it turns out to be viable !

Star Wars was a scheme to develop an orbital X-Ray laser powered by a nuclear explosion. A bit of a pipe dream.

 

The proposed alternative was "point defense" - short range missiles located at areas to be defended. Places like Israel.

Dad's Army?

Dad's Army were not like this. Many had served in WW1 and were lucky to have survived it.
