It can be attacked from any direction. The sheer scale of a missile defense system is, well, just impractical. Something new/different would be needed - giant, really giant, lasers or something. Alas enemies would try to disable such facilities just before their main attack. You only need a FEW routes into the US heartland ..... Oh, peace & love and universal disarmament ... it's NOT HAPPENING folks. The species isn't wired that way.

Who's gonna PAY for them ? Just to cover the US mainland we'd be talking maybe a few THOUSAND of those 'small' lasers. X-percent will be out of service at any given time. Current 'directed energy' devices really just ain't so good. Fuckin' atmosphere ...... When we have a permanent moon colony, put one THERE to fend off the Chinese or whomever.

Um ... no - alas ..... Without kinda literal Star Trek force-shield tech countries will remain fairly vulnerable. Plenty of promises, but no realistic solutions other than to prevent The War from happening.

In that case they will be delivered late, not completely operational, and have cost overruns twice or more of the original estimate. Prove I'm wrong.

First you don't need hundreds. It's all down to how fast you can slew the optics and the recharge time of whatever powers the laser. secondly lasers - even reasonably high powered ones - are not that expensive . Oh, invisible unicorns are massing in Times Square *Prove me wrong*. -- “it should be clear by now to everyone that activist environmentalism (or environmental activism) is becoming a general ideology about humans, about their freedom, about the relationship between the individual and the state, and about the manipulation of people under the guise of a 'noble' idea. It is not an honest pursuit of 'sustainable development,' a matter of elementary environmental protection, or a search for rational mechanisms designed to achieve a healthy environment. Yet things do occur that make you shake your head and remind yourself that you live neither in Joseph Stalin’s Communist era, nor in the Orwellian utopia of 1984.” Vaclav Klaus

You truly underestimate the ability of the US government to fuck up any project. You still have the problem of area. This isn't Britain.

Dig out your globe. If you were in Murmansk and wanted to attack a US target where would your missile fly? If you were in the US where would you try to make an intercept? It's a different situation than the Chinese 'weather balloon' that drifted over Montana a couple of years back. The first civilian spotting was over Montana. Being cowboys the first response was to use the puppy for target practice but Sleepy Joe said to let it go. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titan_Missile_Museum Another bit of history form previous great ideas. It was an interesting tour. Unlike the movies if the launch command is given the operators pick one of three targets but don't know the target coordinates. The rocket uses a hypergolic propellant based on hydrazine. One of the exhibits is the mixing unit. Once the process starts the missile is going to go someplace. There is no off button. Don't drop your wrench. https://encyclopediaofarkansas.net/entries/titan-ii-missile- explosion-2543/

Price building a 500kw-plus pulse laser in yer garage. Oh yea, what powers them, The Grid ??? Three EMP devices and 90% of The Grid goes down hard. Ya might be OK in like Miami - but Miami ain't gonna save the whole USA. To intercept a big, maybe a bit wobbly, incoming missile you'd have to focus HUGE energy on ONE spot within maybe 0.1 second. Haven't done the equations, but I think we're talking HUGE laser energy here. Then you have to re-charge within a few seconds to get the NEXT missile. Put a micron of shiny chrome on the missiles and now you need TWICE the energy. Did see a fun news story today ... a couple of Ukrainians in an open-cockpit plane shot down a Russian drone. The guy in the back seat took it out with a RIFLE and it crashed into the sea. Brit pilots in WW-2 used to "bump" V-1 drones off course with their planes. Are we back to 1944 again ? :-) The "nest of hornets" model kinda invented by Ukraine - the face of 21st century war - is incredibly difficult to defend against. It's the end of 'large' assets - aka large TARGETS. Iran - hate 'em or hate 'em - is employing the same 'nest' strategy. It's proving impossible to get at EVERYTHING, thus leaving them enough to at least 'terrorize'. The USA doesn't need any more big carriers, it needs to spend that money on 200 little, mostly robotic, drone/missile launching boats and cargo planes that can spit out a dozen. How to DEAL with masses of drones and little missiles - SOME maybe with a tac-nuke - coming from every direction ??? Lasers and 'smart' counter-drones are the only tact, but don't think the lasers will be cheap or lack vulnerabilities. The incoming drones will also have avoidance algos for counter-drones. Oh, and China will have pre-hacked the laser software - one or more 'kill switches'. Good fuckin' luck finding them :-)
