re: #658 Dark_Falcon

It would reduce the impact of artillery, not remove it. A sophisticated foe like China would attack the radars themselves with Anti-Radiation Missiles (ARMs). There is no silver bullet. Sooner or later, some foe will counter your weapon, no matter how good it is.

Umm, shooting a missile at a weapon designed to shoot down missiles is a good way to lose a lot of missiles. Like I said, it’s not perfect (yet) and don’t rain on my parade!

Secondly, I take issue with China being classified as “sophisticated”. There’s a short list of professional militaries in the world and they aren’t on it.
