- kevin_thibedeau 4y agoGun pod on a U2.
- mr_toad 4y agoF15s can fly that high.
- case0x00 4y agoI don't think so. I don't know what altitude its at but I imagine aerodynamic control surfaces would not be that effective. F-22 would be better, which is what we deployed.
- LarryMullins 4y agoHeck, F-15s can shoot down satellites.
- zoklet-enjoyer 4y agoSeriously???

- convolvatron 4y agoThat project was cancelled after 5 tests, at least one successful. Since satellite destruction is a pretty interesting tactical option, what does that imply?
- justsomehnguy 4y agoWhat it moved to SM Block 3 on the naval platforms.
- sorry_outta_gas 4y agoIsn't that what that UAV space shuttle is for now, just to orbit around and muck up sats?
