So fuel. Um, so like ballistic missiles nowadays, they, they, yeah, they travel it like mock nine or something like that, but that's when they're at apogee, the phases of flight of a ballistic missile or launch boost, apogee separation and terminal. Um, most systems engage in the terminal phase, like THAAD, Terminal High Altitude Air Defense, and then Patriot is in the terminal phase.

The only exception to this is GMD, which is in the mid-course. So that is usually right around Apogee. That's why it has to move at Mach 33, because it has to meet that target when it's moving that fucking fast. Like, dude, missiles are so fucking cool. Like, for example, THAAD, right? Terminal High Altitude Air Defense, which, by the way...

On paper is the most effective air defense system in existence. It has had four shots and four kills in American history. That is the only time THAAD has ever fired and has killed everything it's ever fired at.

God damn, I ran.

It turns out the THAAD was used exclusively by the ATF.

So that has been fired at Houthi missiles and Iranian missiles. But that is really cool. And I'm saying this just because, again, I'm not that qualified. But this is I was talking to one of my students and they were kind of explaining this to me on class. All my classes on class.

I love it. You're explaining. You're like, I'm not qualified on it. I'm like, I mean, none of us knew this exists.
