Imagine a pair of satellites orbiting several hundred miles above the Earth would serve as a weapons system. One functions as the targeting and communications platform while the other carries numerous tungsten rods--up to 20 feet in length and a foot in diameter--that it can drop on targets with less than 15 minutes' notice. When instructed from the ground, the targeting satellite commands its partner to drop one of its darts. The guided rods enter the atmosphere, protected by a thermal coating, traveling at 36,000 feet per second or Mach 32.25--comparable to the speed of a meteor. The result: complete devastation of the target, even if it's buried deep underground. (The two-platform configuration permits the weapon to be "reloaded" by just launching a new set of rods, rather than replacing the entire system.)
The Pros of this system
1)Same destruction of a small nuclear device, except no fall-out
2)Over time this will cost less.
3)Re-useable satellite, unlike ICBM'S.
The Cons of this System
1)Costs alot to get started
Price: still in testing phase, but the projected price is 13 billion
billion USD for the the following package...
2- Titan Mark V rockets (developed exclusively for these satellites)=1 billion
2-Launch Pads for the Titan Mark V Rocket)=50 million
1-XM2020 Targeting and Communication Satellite)=5 billion
1-XM2021 Weapons Satellite (Holds the Tungsten Rods)=4 billion
80 Rods- or 5 reloadings.)=10 million
1 Command Center)=1 billion
Note: The added cost is shipping, construction of the Command Center, training of the crew, and the warranty.
We also sell....
Titan Mark V Rockets- 500 million each
Launch Pad-25 million each
XM2020-5 billion
XM2021-4 billion
80 rounds of Tungesten rods, or 5 reloadings: 10 million
Command Centers: 750 million
We will not sell this system to enemy nations, or nations that only want this system for offensive purposes. This system is only for defensive/passive usages only. Please try to use all other options before thinking about this weapon. This is a WMD, so be extremly careful, when firing it. I am sorry but you must be over 200 million population, to buy this.
Yes, we do construct everything for you. As long as, you allow 750 engineers, construction vehicles, 2 AN-225 Cossacks un-restricted landing, only to the construction site. Or if you wish to build it yourselves, you still must allow 500 engineers into your nation. But at a reduced cost of: 12.5 billion. But we do not suggest this.
Before you can use this weapon, we must train your crew, and they must fire a dummy round (breaks up in atmosphere) over one of my islands. If they pass this test, then the weapon is yours, if they don't pass, then you try again.
We also issue a warranty on the PACKAGE ONLY. If you have, any problems, issues, failures, software problems, please tg me.
This is a copyrighted System developed through Demo_Man Industries. Also state the reason why, you want this system. This is to further tell me, if you should have this system.
