Video: Multiple Kill Vehicle (MKV) Hover Test

Earlier I reported on the first successful "hover" test of our Multiple Kill Vehicle (MKV) --- ROLL TAPE!

Awesome.

UPDATE: Here's the source of the middle section of my above video where the MKV is hovering around in the netted cage. This Missile Defense Agency (MDA) video also has 2 other camera angles of the test (direct link to .wmv file will launch your viewer). I added the CGI concept illustrations to my vid so people would realize what the heck they were watching.

wow, great video. I was wondering what cad programs were used in the design of this. do you have any idea? thanks.

This is a fake, if it is to be used in space, why do they need to hover test? The netting looks like the same CGI used in the Doom3 video game. My first thought was that this was for a video game when I saw it on Military.com, and further research proves this is just as much a hoax as Iraq's weapons of mass destruction. LAME!

Further research proves you're a dumbass.

This page is pathetic, really. One could think it was made only by republican supporters to gain votes from frightened, stupid people. Whatever.. guys like you, who misleadingly give the impression that it would be necessary to arm more and more will be the downfall of the USA.
The so-called rocket defense is not meant to protect but to threaten. If there was a possibility of not being eradicated by a nuclear strike one would less be frightened to use nuclear weapons. As if this was against terrorism, LOL.
Well, everything as expected from a country with that many people being crazy about guns. Where 8 year old children shoot their parents (or other people) because there are weapons in the house.. I wouldn't blame the children.

You get the least educated, least thoughtful goobers trolling this page, JM. It's a gift.

Or a curse.
