We have all see the images and videos of China boasting about hypersonic missiles, etc.
So the question is how do you stop that? ITT we try to develop some countermeasures to this new and dangerous technology.
NOTE, for it to be viable it has to meet the following criteria:
>Must fit on the Carrier or a carrier escort.
>The technology must exist in some form, or be a combination of existing technology (no force fields, for example).
>The technology must ensure the Carrier survives, even if it is damaged.
>The technology must fit within normal arms conventions (no nuclear device allowed).
With that being said, here is my simple proposal.

The idea is that upon impact, the warhead will either miss (due to the flight path being interrupted and the warhead deflecting) or be deformed and slowed to the point it loses some of its effectiveness.
I am aware of the weaknesses of plotting an intercept-course, but in the future this could be improved.

I did forget to mention, the bag would be deployed via rocket-powered interceptor, launched up into the flight path of the high-speed warhead.

Turn about 10 to port.

We have lasers for a reason.

Are their guidance systems that bad?

>>31095767
Yes is an oversimplification but, yes.

Too fast to correct in terminal phase?

1. Use existing SM-3/6 missiles
2. Railguns with projectiles that airburst
3. Laser CIWS

Commie countries are good at only one thing: propaganda. Divide by 2 and minus another random 5-10% of whatever numbers they claim. Keep in mind China is an adherent of Tsun Zu. "Appear weak when strong and appear strong when weak".

Why not make missiles that deploy metal nets at super sonic speeds to just slice it up? 030

>>31095942
In essence, yes.
The issue with anything going a certain speed is the inability to drastically change its course. Minute adjustments can be made, and I emphasize minute, but once it reaches its terminal dive any significant changes in posture would rip the missile in half.
So a hypersonic missile ends up with a very predictable flight path. The question for its viability then becomes
#1. Can it retain enough accuracy at speed to reliably hit its target?
#2. Can it go fast enough to not be detected before it is too late to stop?
#3. Can it go fast enough to bypass any defense measures at a semi reliable rate if no to the above?
If no to any of these the missile platform becomes pretty irrelevant to your standard supersonic missile swarms which are way cheaper and will always hit their target if they can overwhelm or evade defenses.

So, basically: inertia exists.

yes, really it is just a bunch of pr shit to scare civilians to thinking it is stronger then it really is
