ABSTRACT:
The invention describes and claims an apparatus and method of missile interception. The missile interceptor comprises a net body with a plurality of sections and at least one missile trajectory effector. In the preferred variant, the missile trajectory effector is embodied as an exploding ring. A missile, passing through the net body, picks up a ring, which explodes once the missile passes a sufficient distance away from the missile interceptor. Preferred embodiments of the missile interceptor further comprise one or more vertically-positioned poles. Claimed method involves the use of such interceptor and positioning the interceptor on the likely trajectory of incoming missiles.
