A hunter-seeker!... It can't get me if I don't move... It's too dark in here for it to see clearly...

I've got to grab it -- the suspensor field will make it slippery on the bottom -- I must grip it tightly.

MAKE SURE YOU DON'T MAKE A SOUND OR IT WILL HEAR YOU!!! I SAID BE SILENT OR... oh just forget it.

I remember those! They were called "smart rocks", but those were 1-shot kamakazies. I guess this new Cold War thing is gonna have its benefits, like hovering killbots, may as well enjoy them.

helicopter blades don't work very well at the extreme altitudes ballistic missiles can reach

I'm pretty sure I've seen this in a few Mega Mans.

This is a test of the propulsion core of the MKV. It's launched into a matching midcourse trajectory with an cloud of warheads and decoys, and realigns to each valid warhead target, releasing a 10 lb kill submunition.

In theory, at least.

I imagine it'll be a billion times easier to come up with a counter to this thing than it'd be to perfect this.

Just like all ABM technology.

No amount of single-payer health care is going to patch you up if the Russkies drop an H-Bomb on your head, pal. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, and this here's 43 pounds of pulse-jet-firing, submunition-launching prevention from a nuclear-holocaust headache.

So, I can die at the hands of some Russkies or I can die from my own government's neglect? Sweet.

Everyone knows that the Russians were just coplaying complete ineptitude in order to get us to put our guard down. The second we do, they will band together with the old soviet states and form ULTRAMEGASOCIALISM.

The Ukraine and Latvia will be the legs.
