Comments on MKV-L Multiple Kill Vehicle Video
Defensive weapon video shows successful test; video also shows the basic concept for the MKV-L. (Read
the complete story)
"Thanks to an alert (and participative!) reader, here's a reference to the Combat Wasps from Peter Hamilton's Night's Dawn trilogy. "One of the standard weapons used by all spacecraft, combat wasps are essentially highly advanced missiles containing a wide variety of submunitions. These include gamma pulse laser warheads, hit-to-kill kinetic energy projectiles, thermonuclear warheads, full-spectrum sensors, electronic warfare pods, and anti-matter warheads. The computer controlling each wasp is capable of analysing tactical situations and plotting the optimum way to reach the target, engaging other wasps on the way if needed to ensure success.""
