I'm more interested in knowing about the russian FOBS system. Did it ever go operational?? if so why did we not couter it or shoot it down?
Quoting: jake I heard about FOBS in briefings, but I doubt the Russians ever launched it with a live nuke. We could detect a nuke and then the diplomatic shit would hit the fan. Either our intel services found out about it, or we noticed a test satellite and deduced what they were planning to develop. Note that we were concerned about the NORKS doing something similar. Our ASAT was capable of shooting it down. Note that our ASAT was launched from a fighter aircraft; therefore, it could hit a satellite anywhere above Earth.
