Taking bets right now: Think the Navy will ACTUALLY be able to shoot down that satellite?

I'd put the odds at not more than about three percent that they'll do it.

After all, remember all those glorious Patriot Missile "intercepts" we saw on TV during Gulf War 1? Remember how they all turned out to be NOT actual intercepts? That the Patriots had not, in fact, even intercepted even ONE SCUD?

(Yeah, I know, this is the Standard, not a Patriot, but still...)
