Boost-phase theater intercept concepts are needed for known and existing countermeasures to current systems. Fast kinetic energy interceptors could be developed from existing and improved propulsion technology and miniaturized sensors to provide that capability. High velocity interceptors with achievable acceleration could achieve the ranges needed for protection of bases and populations, addressing most theater threats. Propulsion requires development. Drag and heating are largely predictable and controllable. Fast interceptors would also have useful applications in national and global missile defense.
