Sous-lieutenantUS hails success in anti-ballistic missile test
A US fighter jet has successfully completed testing of ground-breaking new weapons technology capable of destroying ballistic missiles before they fire off into space. It is hoped the new system will prove invaluable in combat against both short and medium range missiles. A jet armed with the new missiles would have to get to within a 100 miles of the ballistic launch site in order to catch the target in time. The new system, called the Net-Centric Airborne Defence Element (NCADE) - can be deployed from both fighter jets and unmanned drones, increasing its versatility in combat situations. The test at White Sands in New Mexico involved an F-16 fighter that fired two modified AIM-9X missiles at a research rocket. The first missile destroyed the target and the second recorded the interception, according to the Pentagon's Missile Defence Agency. The missile seekers relayed images of the rocket at close range, demonstrating the capability to lock onto and track the target, the MDA said. In a statement the agency said the new system would be capable of providing defence for "the US homeland, its deployed forces, friends and allies against all ranges and in all phases of flight". Raytheon Missile Systems, which developed the system, said: "This test provides clear evidence that the NCADE seeker is a viable solution against a boosting ballistic missile threat." The Pentagon is developing other boost phase intercept systems - the Airborne Laser and the Kinetic Energy Interceptor - but, unlike the NCADE, these are still years away from being operational, according to the MDA.
