[Paal Gulli]

"Newtonian physics gets in the way of maneuverability in re-entry vehicles. The “typical” ICBM or SLBM travels between 18 and 30 times the speed of sound. That’s travelling quite a few meters in a millisecond...."

Newtonian physics also gets in the way of shooting a bullet out of the sky with another bullet.

Directed energy über alles.

[Hugh the Scot]

If we’re going to shoot them down, I suggest we start earlier in the flight path, and do so with directed energy weapons.

Yeah, I know... Weaponizing space...

If we don’t, they will.
