A ground based missile intercepted a hostile missile today in a successful test run of the missile defense system.
As reported by the Associated Press:
An intercontinental ballistic missile interceptor blasted out of an underground silo at Vandenberg Air Force Base shortly after 1:15 p.m., and tracked a target missile that had lifted off from the Kodiak Launch Complex in Alaska, the Boeing Co. said in a statement.
Over the next five years, $49 million in expenditures is expected by the government to perfect the system.
