>surface vs orbit>Launch missile from the ground, maybe lasers or railguns if feeling fancy>Drop bomb from orbit, maybe a special missile if feeling fancySo what would air to space and viceversa be?
>>65610375Weak lasers to blind sensorsMissiles and powerful lasers to hard-kill satellites and deflect/destroy incoming projectiles
>>65610375Really high performance fighters can fire ASAT missiles if need be, but realistically you'd just use ground based lasers to fry solar panels and cameras
Much bigger planes with a mix of air breathing and rocket engines.
>>65610455perhaps even very high power lasers or microwaves to burn the electronics without causing a kessler syndrome
>>65610375>So what would air to space and viceversa be?Lots and lots of SIGINT and microwave cannons.
>>65610847A satellite without the ability to maneuver is just going to inevitably collide with something, thus spawning a cloud of debris which will further contribute to the cage we're building around ourselves.
>>65613391>I'm an idiot and don't understand the surface area of a sphere We would have to launch more material than the earth is actually composed of in order to render orbit useless
>>65610847>kessler syndromeFuck off with your popsci crap.
>>65613400>>65613509>I know more than the community of experts dedicated to the field we're discussingAn increasingly more common line as midwits trust said experts less and less.
>>65613566Still nowhere near enough stuff on orbits to make them unusable if EVERYTHING on them got trashed fucktard.
>>65613566>These clickbait slop videos for idiots made me really scared and we should all listen to them!!!!!You should learn how orbits work before you spew bullshit from a guy with duck face thumbnails on YouTube
>>65610375>So what would air to space be?maybe some ASAT, but mostly ground based lasers>and viceversaTotal surveillance, live tracking of everything that flies.
>>65613568Starlink alone is over 16,000,000# in orbit.
>>65613609You are useless and emotionally feminine.
>>65613609I don't even know who the fuck you're referring to.
>>65613854>>65613865>1-2 punch of projection and samefagIgnorant and seething, lol.
>>6561037599% missiles/stealth/EW/jammingbut the missiles arent limited by having to be aerodynamic so they can do a lot more shit. they will still by cylindrical with a pointed tip for stealth purposes but wont have aerodynamic surfaces
i liked space above and beyond myself for dog fighting and bablyon 5 for space laser beam cannon stuff. whatever star wars disneys does withthat ryan gosling fighter could have some cool planet side fighting ala top gun but it will probably be all dee space stuff.
>>65613848And they are small as fuck targets and in self destroying orbits so most debris would burn up as usual.
>>65610375>So what would air to space and viceversa be?Chinese J-36 Launching PL-20 at american satelite.
>>65610375Refueling drones loitering in the mesosphere, run by the spacefags for use by next gen high altitude fighters and bombers under Air Force control.>Troposphere>StratosphereAirforce>Mesophere>Thermosphere>ExopsphereSpace Force
>>65614990What about Manosphere?
>>65614957If China is engaging American strategic assets then satellites are the least of their concerns.
>>65615031Gay, so under the jurisdiction of the Marines.
>>65610847>kessler syndromeLiterally not even a real thing
