So the real news isn't that half of the anti-missile defense system tests have succeeded, it's that half of them have failed despite anti-missile system test targets having embedded homing beacons. ( http://www.salon.com/news/col/cona/2001/07/31/test/index.html ) So all that talk about "decoys" was apparently just so much hoohey. If I had a vendor that was faking results, lying to me, and mis-estimating my requirements, I'd drop 'em. Why don't we fire the Pentagon ( http://www.defenselink.mil/pubs/pentagon/ ) and hire the North Korean military ( http://www.fas.org/nuke/guide/dprk/ ) instead? it'd be cheaper, and we'd probably get more apropriate solutions.
