"Just wait for the private Starships. Hey they should be cheaper than megayachts."
Any space rocket can turn the whitehouse, the Kremlin or 10 Downing street into a crater withing 30 minutes, with minimal chances of air defence to stoping it. If we start handing out starships to random shady conpanies registered in tax heavens, 9/11 will look like a peacefull day in comparison
- rurban 5y agoSubmarines also. Today
- freemint 5y agoSub marines can't turn the Downing Street let alone Washington DC into rubbel. Rockets launched from submarines can. No one but nation states have this capability today.
- ClumsyPilot 5y agoYou mean ballistic missile submarines? Do we sell them to random rich people?
- AtlasBarfed 5y agoYou're not wrong, but a private 747 could probably pose a similar threat to your stated targets, but who knows if they actually put in a worthwhile air defense after 9/11.
