Capital Ship Missile AMM carrier

(1/3) > >>

plasticpanzers:
Is it possible to create say a size 12 capital ship missile that doesn't need to go fast, has active sensors
that see about 175,000km and can launch a cluster of say 10 x S1 Anti-missile Missiles at mass missile
attacks?

Father Tim:
Yes.  It is possible.

plasticpanzers:
Ah possible.... volunteers front and center... will tell you what happens.....

Garfunkel:
It will either be extremely devastating. Or the separation distance will be too short and the carriers will be taken out by enemy AMMS.

misanthropope:
the 914-meter-view is that a size 12 launcher throwing MIRV-AMMs cannot be as effective as a significantly smaller investment in size 1 launchers.   in some reasonable circumstances, a *single* size 1 launcher will perform better.

if youve got the size 12 launchers and discover your opponent has hella throw weight, i can see developing the mirv as a stopgap.   but at the ship-design stage it's a pretty tough sell, i think.
