Owning Nuclear weapons does provide a deterrent against those that wish to use them for evil purposes. However the newest Innovation in National Defence has been delivered by Farixen Defence Industries, in the form of a Nuclear weapon defence. The Mk48 "Interceptor" system works by utilizing real-time GPS and Radar updates from orbiting satellites, as well as Geiger stations to detect the paths of Nuclear weapons. Once the missile has been detected, its speed, trajectory and size is calculated, and the onboard computer informs other systems and local military forces. If the trajectory is hostile, and the missile is on a predicted vector with a nearby location, the Interceptor arms itself. It emits a high energy stream of Magnetically excited Photons toward the missiles predicted path. When the laser impacts, it immediately melts away the warhead and the inner arming mechanisms by kinetic impact and sheer heat, rendering it useless and without it detonating. The laser itself is powered by a small nuclear reactor core within the system, utilizing electromagnetism to power the weapon. The laser itself is capable of firing once every minute without overheating, however if multiple MIRV warheads have already re-entered the atmosphere, the unit alerts nearby smaller systems to each calculate and destroy the warheads.
Individual Unit costs estimate $4.8Million USD - Orders are available.
