Good News is No News: THAAD Missile Defense Test Spectacularly Successful in Realistic Test; Media Fails to Notice

Aviation Week reports, but don't expect the information to get out further than that.


Closing Velocity has it:

Two different Thaad interceptors were launched against a single target, simulating an Army operational concept of dispatching a salvo of weapons to ensure a threat is destroyed. The U.S. Missile Defense Agency (MDA) and industry officials declared the flight test a success shortly after it was executed.

However, they disclosed to Aviation Week only recently that the results exceeded their expectations. Early reports from the Pentagon said the second interceptor was intentionally destroyed in flight after the first disabled the target in a hit-to-kill engagement.

“Actually, what happened on the flight test was that the first interceptor hit just as it was supposed to and the second interceptor looked at all of this debris and said, ‘OK, I’ve got another something that looks interesting,’ picked out another threat, and went out and killed it,” says Tom McGrath, Thaad vice president for prime contractor Lockheed Martin. “The second intercept hit another piece of hardware. We can’t talk about what that was, but it picked out what logically you would expect it to pick out and killed it.”

I don't know why they're being coy about that. They mean it either locked in on the heat signature of the still-hot engines, or (less likely) it locked on to a radioactive trace they put into the warhead to make it play like a nuke.

It's not as if enemies can't guess what they're talking about. And it's not as if anyone's jaw is gong to drop at news that a missile locks on heat-signatures.

They pretty much flat-out say "it locked on to something it was keyed to seek, apart from physical mass." If they wanted to hide this they should have just said the second interceptor went after the biggest remaining bit of mass, and we wouldn't be sitting here wondering what the missile was targeting apart from mass.

Closing Velocity also re-rubbishes the already-rubbished fatuous arguments against missile defense.

I like that thinking, but unfortunately in the end, there will be only chaos.

I think we're going to be completely screwed in the next 2-3 years.  It may not be a domestic policy thing, but I think we're going to get butt-raped by one of Messiah's foreign policy blunders.  Foremost on my mind is a nuclear Iran, but it could be something else as well.

Probably.  They should be punished for their part in lying and cheating and breaking the law of the land to further this administration.  I am very angry and bitter toward the MSM.  I truly consider them traitors.  I hold them largely responsible for the unlawful activities the present administration continues to carry out.  Shame on them.

I’m surprised that Il Douche hasn’t killed the budget for this program as well.

 

Ace; radioactivity in a nuclear weapon is primarily Alpha emitters which will not penetrate the “skin” of the missile unless the warhead skin itself is the radioactive substance (U-235 or Pu-240). You could never target a defensive missile based on radioactivity because the activity of a nuclear weapon is not much above natural background.

32 Kratos: I think you're partially right. Yeah -- something very bad is more likely to happen than not. However, it's not us (wealthy relative to the history of humanity) middle class Americans, or even our own poor who are going to suffer the most for it. Yeah, things might get a bit grim, but we have strong institutions here -- family, church, our guns, our tradition (though fading) of self reliance. It might be pushed to back of many people's memories, but it's still all there. Pity the other nations of the world who have yet to crawl out from below the boots of their dictators, or who have done so but are struggling economically to put food on their tables. We'll be okay to stand against chaos.

Could be.  I used to be a manager in the facility that made the important seeking-type bits for heat-seeking missiles.

Them thangs were SENSITIVE.  I can imagine seekers sensitive enough to pick out the nuky bits.  They use sensors in planes to find nuclear material on the ground after all.

Tinian, how would you measure density at those closing velocities? 

When I worked on this stuff, we were having problems getting enough passive photons into the detector wells within the time horizons.  Much less sending out a signal and getting a return.

Reference the B-1, currently in our inventory, that Carter cancelled.  If it works, it can be put on line by an administration with just a few more live brain cells.

If I was working on that project, random shitbag politicians would be somewhere on the targeting priority list.  Maybe they can't say what they hit with the second missile cause they have to hide the body.
