No doubt AI can and will improve in all technology, but we know the military has functional lasers. If we do possess space defense lasers, it would NOT be known. "We" wouldn't know anything about it. IMHO

We have interceptors, they suck and miss most of the time, and we only have a few of them.
So yea, we'd be fricked.

WTF is a laser gonna do against a hypersonic nuclear vehicle?

There are very few if any defenses against a nuclear missile once it reaches the stratosphere. It is theoretically possible to shoot it down before then but one with multiple war heads like the US and Russia possesses are indefensible at that point.

Multiple independently targeted re-entry vehicles makes it tough. Instead of one missile, there may be a dozen. All dropping to a different place.
Tough problem.
Tough problem.

Pretty sure light moves faster than sound. Even at ten times the speed of sound, a hypersonic object is standing still insofar as a laser is concerned.
More physics, less transgender studies, peanut.

No worries, Hegseth definitely is

Look! Evil is evil. Every now and then, the bully needs an arse whipping! It was time. Let's take away the nuke issue. They have been killing Americans actively for the past 50 years. We should all be pissed at the feckless presidents which preceded President Trump and kicked the can down the road.

It’s still mind boggling that people still buy the bad guys have a nuke gimmick.

It's not a matter of velocity you fricking retard. At hypersonic speeds the vehicle is enshrouded in plasma. PLASMA, a laser weapon is useless.
Maybe you should read a book sometime, all bravo no brains.

I suppose you have absolute knowledge of all laser capabilities the US possesses..... (you don't)
Kinetic defense missiles can do the job.
They don't have to be faster than supersonic missles, there is this thing called trajectory.... now days we have AI/computers that figure that part out.
shite! I didn't even read a book! Lol

That's not what we're talking about is it. Why can boomers not understand message boards in 2026?
You definitely need some reading.
