The Russians have been working on this sort of cooperative missile volley strike for quite a while I believe.

Good while ago I read about the SS-N-22 Sunburn being able to attack in a group with most down low to avoid interception, with one flying up high for targeting info. The high bird would update the low ones. If it got shot down, one of the low ones would move up and take it's place.

Be interesting to know just how well that worked and how often they did live fire testing to prove it out. Sounded like one helluva programming accomplishment at the time, so I wondered.

Pretty impressive missile role play there. Meanwhile, back in the U.S. our president closes embassies after abandoning Americans to die at one. That sums up 0bama’s terms well: abandonment and surrender.
