  • "Any attack on Pakistan would be construed as an attack on China."

  • @AlexTrebucq I know your comment is a year old, but I had to reply. :) The Aegis Program actually was started in the late fifties with the Advanced Surface Missile System, later named AEGIS. What is really cool about the system though is it can be completely upgraded to match todays threats. It is basically computer software. There are 7 versions (baselines) of AEGIS, the 7th, the most advanced version, was installed in 2007. It is an amazing system.

  • That does launch unusually fast

  • Jeez...that launches ALOT faster than I thought...

  • Nah, most of these videos have been cleared for public release. You have to understand, these videos have propaganda value, not to mention the fact that they show what our tax dollars are doing. =)

  • This is one of the most advance defense missile for ICBMs and other threats.

  • lol
