About 30 years ago the Macabean government launced their first real ICBM defense system. In thos 30 years it has been upgraded and perfected and has reached an accuracy rate of 92.4%. Right now the government has 413 sattelites orbiting the area around the Macabees (about 23,000 km radius)...

Here is the actual technology and this is from an earlier post made about a month ago: _______________________________

Thus the Macabean government will donate some 400 billion USD annually to research hydrogen powered (not warhead) patriot missiles supplemented by a mercury base. It is etimated that the patriot missiles will go at a speed of 11.5 mach and will be able to intercept ICBM's at over 5,000km away.

This system works with a series of Macabean produced "special" sattelites that spread around the earth in space. A laser then targets the ICBM and since theres so many sattelites the ICBM will be hard to miss.

The Sat. then transmits signals to the Patriot missile base which automatically launches some 70 patriot missiles.

This tech. is completely modern. (About 2006 tech).

Sattelites - 900 billion USD ea.
Patriot Variant B's - 200 billion USD ea.

___________________________________________

The updates that have taken place since then are the following:

The speed remains the same at 11.5 mach using slightly better hydrogen propulsion. The blast of the old patriot missiles left a resedue which was potentially dangerous to the people in the area thus that has been eliminated by compartments in the missiles which sucks this resedue in.

The range has been extended to 12,000 km. The reason for so many sattelites at 23,000 range is because it locks on to it ealry giving the computers more time to react, thus a better accuracy rate.

The costs remain the same.

How much would this technology cost?

Prices for the technology proper have not been thought out but representatives can meet and find a price. The last person (on the other thread about a month ago) bought it for 5 trillion USD in a period of 15 years.

One of the missiles was recently tested on a Macabean ICBM and the noise it made went like this.. "BUMP'...

bumps away!

Very Impressive. for a nation my size i would guess that the price and amount of satillites would be considerably higher.

Not necessarily since you dont have to have over 400 sattelites...we just like to overdo things and make sure their done.

Who can afford a missle that costs $200 Billion each?!?! :shock:

Well really, it is a bit over, but I'd assume it is becuase these missiles are the best, and I don't think he would be mass-producing them for cheap, they are for a dooms-day scenario

Credonia is interested in buying a similar system from you. Although we do not have the money now, we are willing to make annual installments on it, should your government allow it.

Well my defense budget (50%) is at 7 trillion USD. Using a, lets say, 30 year plan I can purchase quite alot of these.

Also, you can always buy the technology and produce them for less yourselves, but as said before the technology is 5 trillions.

That is acceptable and as we like to appease our clients you may outline your payment plan and what you would like (wether it may be us building a defense web over you using the sattelites and missiles or you buying the technology).

Credonia will get back to you soon on a payment plan

Sounds good 8)

Nice.

ok. How much for the missile and satilite technology?

Our nation has a system that has been battle-proven (real nuclear war) with 50% accuracy. Although at the time this was stellar performance, the losses were not acceptable. So we devloped a plasma-based pulse weapon that creates a sphere of hydrogen plasma about ten miles across. The sheld consists of a constellation of satelites over our country that would detonate on the launch of an attacking missile strike. Since it blankets the space over the country in hydrogen plasma, the accuracy is about 90%. But the system can only be used once, so it is not very effective for multiple strikes. It is for sale for 5 trillion dollars.

So if someone fires one hundred missiles at you..between 7 and 8 would hit?

I'll stick with my MADD

It depends on the sattelites and patriots you have. If you only 100 patriots and you need to target each ICBM with some 3 patriots just to get the job done then yes you're screwed. But if your like me who has a great number of patriot missiles just for this you're pretty much safe.

Our main anti missile system is ground and space based energy turrets that fire large bolts of energy rapidly at any threat and destroy's it thoroughly.
