I've been rolling with some of the other claims in the thread but that just seems way too out there even for NS MT.
It’s not in space and it doesn’t fly at Mach 10. Look closely and you will see the moon and you’ll see that it has launched a drone at Mach 10. It’s a high-altitude airship designed for launching spacecraft, and also designed to look like a spacecraft and designated as one mostly to terrify people. Speaking purely theoretically I think it could probably make it to space as it’s a partial pressure difference vacuum airship which enables anti-matter harvesting by coils from the atmosphere, but to be honest there’s no point as spaceflight is so expensive that it won’t.
As such it’s still 8000 km away from any railguns, protected by the atmosphere, not to mention Aestoria’s Arctic Flotilla, and it’s not in the path of any ballistic missiles, so I think the only defence it needs is the ignore can(n)on, but if I’m wrong please do correct me.
Munkchester, sorry, but I don’t like RPing by TG. If you send any peace offer ICly I’ll be happy to look at it.
Look, I appreciate the attempt at a Bussard ramjet, but that shit doesn't work in atmosphere. If it did, there would be firecrackers constantly going off everywhere as atoms of antimatter intersected with normal matter counterparts. This simply ignores basic science, and requires little advanced thought to figure out. The rest of the craft is highly suspect, especially in MT, but that particularly glaring issue both astonishes and amazes in equal measure.
