Sounds cool, Marines thundering out of the sky in their drop ships on any point on the planet in two hours, ready to fight for cross and country. However, if you think about it for a while you will realize that this sort of thing is like highly refined political pork. The high test stuff that senators dream about. Anyway, unless there are major advancements in areospace in the next few years this will not make it off the drawing board.
“not make it off the drawing board.” and probably still end up costing taxpayers millions of dollars…sigh…
Yeah, I can only hope that if anything is done on this that the technology finds it’s way out of the military labs an into the regular space programs.
