_popescu: what's special about the railgun IS NOT that it is better than other precision guided projectiles, but rather it is very-long-range artillery, with really small payload, and no rocket motor
ben_vulpes: mircea
_popescu: em is going to be a far simpler engineering challenge.
mircea_popescu: ben
_vulpes expensive ; yes. but comparable to trying alternative weapon systems. whereas on earth - not comparable.
mircea_popescu: ben
_vulpes the "interdictor" is this item which has a railgun, a supply of pellets, and a huge array of solar panels etc to power them. this item can then shoot fast pellets towards any other ship, crippling it.

_vulpes: the point is that deployed systems have a hard upper bound of inbound targets they can handle, and there is no such hard upper bound to how many inbounds can be lobbed at them, much less any sort of constraint on btc/lobbed body.

_vulpes of the total energy available to the projectile, some % is given at launch and some % is given in flight. if you got a bullet (100-0) ballistics dun work. if you got a missile (0-100) ballistics work

_popescu: pete
_dushenski i expect she hates him which is how she got to be a nanny in canada in the first place. "he gets in way of unipolar us world!!" in alt-statement.
BingoBoingo: <mircea
_popescu> then for another thing, the mechanism. it's so neatly stupid, with its strict content-and-label disparity, like a retarded kid trying to invent "his own" geography, calling all the items in common geography by different names and that's it. << Just like Elliot!!!

_popescu: anyway, since we're on it : remember when the us had to bomb its intel depot / "embassy" in baghdad ? it came with a ~230 mn bill for gear, that was never reported. there's going to be another 50 ? 60 ? 100 mn worth of destroyed expensive gear in mosul. once you start adding all these up, the "misplaced" pentagon money suddenly catches a very different light.
