durying the ww2 a british theoretical defense to the V2 was to just use a fuck ton of fuck to intercept the balistic missile.would it work with modern tech?
Ya having a stroke there OP?
Sure, but you're firing a fuck ton of fuck into the air which needs to come down somewhere. Russians are already complaining about their car engines being hit by drone defence rounds.
Yes
>>65200121Those don't look much like Tommies to me
>>65200133OP meant U2, the Brits were considering sending Bono back in time to sing shitty songs
>>65200121>If the UK had modern tech in WW2 could they intercept a primitive missile Are you so fucking retarded that you couldn't think of a logical answer to that statement yourself?
>>65200121what in the fuck did you just write?
>>65200141using flak with modern radar, warhead, propelant,... would it be possible to shoot down balistic missiless
Back of the envelope, a V2 approaches at around 1.5 km/s and the effective ceiling altitude of 40mm Bofors is ~4 km, giving you 2.6 seconds time to intercept. With a big handwave of ~1km/s projectile velocity your round travel time to intercept is around 1.5 seconds at the start of intercept and going down from there. With WW2 era Bofors, you have time to shoot about 4 rounds total for the entire intercept.Let's just say there's a reason gun-based ABM is not a thing.
>>65200153It's a fuck ton of fuck. Not sure what's so hard to understand about that.
>>65200153Rico le cute.
>>65200217>Let's just say there's a reason gun-based ABM is not a thing.I'd say it's entirely possible to make an effective gun based ABM system that would be effective against ICBMs... but the design choices you'd need to make move it swiftly from sensible procurement and into "The nocturnal emissions of Frank Tinsley"
>>65200121Possible? YesWith modern tech much more so. In fact I would say your chances go up from like .00001% to .001% on a typical strike.
>>65200139surely that's a war crime of some kind
>>65200121Zamynnn. That solider on the left is huffing some huge weird looking bong, lmao.
