Darkman124 11/08/17 7:46:43 AM #16:	Patriot is old terminal-intercept tech. It's likely cheaper to buy the system than develop your own. Considering we're both NATO, it'd be a big waste of resources. Development cycles are frequently so expensive now that if you're not involved from the beginning it makes little sense to go off and develop it yourself. --- And when the hourglass has run out, eternity asks you about only one thing: whether you have lived in despair or not. <cite>Darkman124 posted [p:889989685] in Sweden to ...
