Bush installed those 25 land based interceptors, plus hundreds of PAC-3 terminal interceptors and sea-based SM-2 and SM-3 interceptors for some rough total of 600-odd interceptor defense missiles.
It’s not a bad line of defense. The key being that *our* nukes would have to take out the rest of a massive strike against us once the first icbm was detected to be in-bound.
Also, Bush installed an impressive sea-based and satellite-based “sniffing” system to guard against the ever-present “nuke in a cargo-ship” possibility.
None of it is perfect or comprehensive, but in sum our defenses could give us time to respond offensively such that our combined offense and defense saved the day.
For us, anyway...
Do not forget ABL
I pray patriots are in charge of their readiness and use.
I don’t trust the globalists in or out of our military.
Thanks for your info. Comforting.
However, I suspect that God alone will be able to prevent some things.
