Yes, because Norway has been quite the aggressor over the years.
Can’t be too careful with those Viking Berserkers....

Actually, Norway will be in a position to intercept nuclear missiles fired from bases in Russia.

That Aegis crusier location has been chosen for years.

VIking berserkers run amok!
This is silliness for show and nobody is hurting Russia or threatening to do so. Norway should say so and then go ahead.

I liked how you used “fusillade”. These BMDs are assigned a target individually using the Aegis.

I mean, I don’t think Russia would have trouble at all maxing out the Norwegian system. Whereas rogues like Iran could not. At least not yet.

If the missile is MIRVed it could max it out.Not Individually.Discrimination algorithms enable defense systems to compare objects in a target scene to determine which to intercept. SM-3 has flown and demonstrated fundamental discrimination capability for unitary threats.

MIRVing doesn’t happen until somewhere at the top of the trajectory... that’s why they’re called independent re-entry vehicles. If Aegis caught one before it MIRVed, it would obviously prevent the MIRVing.

You are correct. But the SM-3 is designed to get them after they are launched, not when they are the boost phase.

The SM-3 waits for MIRVs to MIRV?

The KW acquires the ballistic missile warhead with its

If you want a weapon that destroy the missile at the “boost phase” would be the ABL.

Of course, because God-forbid any country would be able to survive a Russian attack.

The Russians are hypocrites. They have many decades in ABM defense. They have 100 Gazelle-Gorgon ABM missiles areound Moscow.
