New technologies are going to be crucial in the coming civil war. You know, with the proper grain mixture, tuning specific impulse vs thrust, the burn rate of certain cubanes can be controlled enough for a rather small two stage vehicle, possibly single stage even using a gradient in the grain, yet fast enough to acheive, lets say, 50,000 kM, and still be Navally deployed, and have zero-point safety with the option of either kinetic or sub-kiloton payload. For geostationary, the sub-kiloton option might be preferable to a KW for purposes of reclamation of the slot, free of debris. No slot is privately owned. All slots are owned exclusively by the ITU Member Nations. There is no law or treaty that prevents reclamation of such slots from renegade private entities, by any means necessary. The existing SM-3 can deal with probable clandestine channels in the LEO and highly elliptical realm, such as the AO series, and foreign counterparts. Bushs lie that the 100 pounds of hydrazine would kill people was bullshit, it would have burned up on reentry, but his authorization gave the SM-3 a proper sea trial. (Although Bush used a lie to justify the test, there was also truth in his lie, hydrazine is the stuff of nightmares, sci-fi, and horror movies, when in contact with living things). Still, cubane-based propellants are the key to navally-deployed geoststionary sat killers. Such WILL be necessary. War is war. America plays to win, at least when democrats are in control.
