Oh yes, the US Air Force is still working on that, the Pentagon is still planning with that assumption, and that will be implemented no matter who gets the keys to the Oval Office next January. "Missile Defense" is a taxpayer boondoggle--always was, always will be. Who's it aimed at, Russia? They'll just expand their arsenal to overwhelm the defense--presto, new arms race. Rogue states? Missiles are the LEAST likely delivery method for a nuclear device from them; If MADD worked for the USSR, it'll work for "rogue states". Shoot one missile at us, and we will nuke your pissant country back to the stone age. Alcibiades wrote:

I know that was an issue some years ago, but treaties and the end of the Cold War took care of it. Has anyone even recently proposed putting weapons in space?
