Frankly, I had great hopes for the GMD (Ground-Based Midcourse Defense) program but that seems to be going nowhere. But it is my opinion that laser based missile defence US had worked earlier and is also working right now could be an operational and effective system in near to mid future. Same goes for the rail gun systems.

As for the NOKO, a country with the GDP of a small American town is not a threat to the US or any other country for that matter. For NoKo, it is mere flexing and posturing to keep themselves safe and for US MIC, it is the fear mongering which will get them the funds.

The Pentagon is quietly working to set up an elaborate network of defenses to protect American cities from a barrage of Russian cruise missiles.

The plan calls for buying radars that would enable National Guard F-16 fighter jets to spot and shoot down fast and low-flying missiles. Top generals want to network those radars with sensor-laden aerostat balloons hovering over U.S. cities and with coastal warships equipped with sensors and interceptor missiles of their own.
