wealthy british style the stock. market. really happening to the global economy with. the global financial headlines. it's.

good to have you with. us. and. have a right to know what's going on a. visa free travel. to the ship. for the moment. in fifteen minutes discusses the. driving

a wedge between. washington and special. i. for what i understand russians are not against trees they are against a more advanced and the more capable ones could you expand on that well we started the study a couple of months ago to look into the technical side of what might be behind russia's concerns so there's the narrative in the west has been that russia is ideologically opposed to middle missile defense so that they're more concerned with the bases in poland and romania but we wanted to see if there's something besides that they feel perhaps poland and romania are in their spear of influence but we wanted to see if there's actual technical concerns what we found is that the phase adaptive approach to missile defense is broken up into two parts number one and

number two where the low potency interceptors the block one interceptors are on line and phases three and four where the higher speed interceptors will be brought online and our analysis shows if the system is reconfigured a little bit that it will have some ability against russian i.c.b.m. so there is some legitimate concern from from the russian side as to the technical ability in principle of the system being able to intercept russian i.c.b.m. in the report you argue that the u.s. doesn't really need the last two phases could you expand on that it's sort of a paradox because. even neither of the first phases nor the second phases would really have an ability against rogue state i.c.b.m.'s anybody who can make the list of missiles can also put decoys the missile to overcome the defenses you can put for instance inflatable balloons that appear to the radar sensors into the imaging sensors on the intercept vehicle as warhead so you overwhelm the system so it's

easy to defeat the system and we won't be getting anything extra by going to the higher potency interceptors to block to interest. which are due to come online after twenty eighteen so neither the first two phases nor the second two phases will have much inherent ability against the rogue state threat you make two very important points that the effectiveness of the interceptors is arguable from a scientific point of view and b. that this could push the russians and possibly the chinese to try and restore some kind of balance by arming themselves more of these things that those arguments can be could be discarded by decision makers in washington well apparently they have already. it's sort of a puzzle because the system itself has never actually been tested under realistic conditions you know for instance a salvo of missiles that incorporate countermeasures and it's never really been tested against that the timing. has always been known to the intercepting so the intercept team knows exactly the trajectory that the missile is incoming on and

they know the exact timing so of course in the case of north korea or iran that will not be the case furthermore most seriously perhaps the most of the system is based on ships now these ships have never been tested in rough weather in fact when the u.s. a one ninety three satellite was being intercepted a few years back it was called off for a couple of days because the weather was too rough for the cruiser so this is a known weakness in the system but you know from the planners side they have to see perhaps there will be some technological surprise in the future maybe they'll be many more interceptors maybe they'll be a different administration so from the military planners in china and russia they have to pretend or plan for the worst pretend like the system works whereas it can be easily overcome and has never been realistically tested the russians have been quite persistent in forgiveness and if it's not against us let's do it together the

response that they get is always a polite no no you know they are told yes we will cooperate on equal terms. what do you make i mean i think it's in some ways it's a natural response because. it's hard to get full cooperation when russia is not officially part of nato but i would say even both in the u.s. and in russia the people asking for for for ration before you do that the most important thing is to make sure the system works you know you don't want to cooperate on something that can easily be defeated by iran or north korea it's important to understand that these intercepts of the missile occur in space so there's no air resistance there so you can spread out any kind of balloons shards of metal and all of these things travel with the warhead in space because there's no resistance so you're can deceive the defenses very simply so i would say before all the political

people asking for cooperation go too far there should be a study of whether this system can in fact work in real combat conditions not in a very rigged test as it's been conducted today still you know you see in the report you touch upon that technical aspect for russia's concerns but from what i've been covering him from what i understand the more important part of precious frustration over america's missile defense plan is that we say yes to cooperation on equal terms and. do you think that should be part of the discussion well surely it should be part of the discussion it should but you know there's a priority first to get a system that works and then you cooperate on it so. i think there's a time for cooperation but before that perhaps we can get maybe make it work together you know yeah exactly so we could get the technical people in russia

together with the technical people in the us and we can all brainstorm on ideas but but that's not happening. so. you know there's various people have proposed different systems that might work for postal of my team my colleague has proposed a drone based system so you'd have drones circling the north korea for instance and this would be a threat to russia of course because it's located around north korea and when they see a missile being launched they were captured before it releases the warhead of space then they can hone in on the hot exhaust coming out of. the boosting missile it's called the boot but apparently it's not been picked up by the pentagon and it's not being studied by anybody else so i think we need to get the technical people to cooperate once it's a good system is there then we can get the political people perhaps to cooperate in talks about there is an opinion that there is this hawkish mentality that

flourished under the bush administration pushing for more defense spending and many say it continues under obama do you think that a costly missile defense program of arguable effectiveness could be pushed forward by this kind of hawkish mentality rather than security threats. i mean surely there is inertia in the system when the bush plan was first discarded by president obama when he came into power there was a lot of hope that the new system would be more agreeable to the russians but now that we have actual numbers if you look at the congressional research service reports it would be four hundred forty interceptors based on forty three ships now these are mobile platforms and that is part of the problem so instead of being less of a concern going from the bush administration to the obama administration the. this is raised all sorts of red flags in russia the new system there's something

interesting i read. the house defense bill and it funds and mandated that ministration to go. the study on the technical and operational visibility of space based interceptors that's from one of the papers here. that sounds an awful lot like. plans which the american physical society concluded was a hoax but nonetheless billions of dollars were spent on research he said that the current myself defense program also could turn into a hole where money goes and disappears despite what the scientists are saying well you know space based defense has been proven to be not a feasible idea because you would need so many interceptors and these would be in orbit now people have an idea that things are stationary in orbit they're not in low earth orbit they're moving very fast so they're not over any one region for very long the consequence of that is that you need many many many interceptors and

for instance a whole you can create a hole in the defenses by just shooting a prior missile to get the local interceptors to to intercept that one and then for the future you have a big hole in your defense that you can. that you can use to send a missile through so scientists know that why are they spending money on it i think as far as i know there's not actually money being spent right now on developing it but there is the defense bill authorized that they're studying the concept they're not actually building it as far as i know at the moment but it's definitely proven proven to be feasible idea and it's not just the american physical society various x. officers technical officers of air force u.s. air force have also looked into it and shown that it's overly expensive and it's very easy to defeat again i.
