    The whole space rush has always seemed interesting to me in that so many smart people invested so much time into something so...futile.

    I could be wrong.

    Everything is better when you put a laser on it. The russians clearly realised this.

    As soon as I read the topic I thought: "Well if the Russians made it I'm sure it will fall apart."

    Poor guys....they try so hard and they have such good ideas...I personally loved the cardboard missile idea. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    I've seen pictures of declassified soviet space weaponry in a book about warfare / history, I'm sure it's not a hoax

    It's possible, but lazer defensez seemed hoaxish to me in the late 80's. But hey, what do I know, I wasn't even born at this project's date and barely 5 at the collapse of the USSR <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    The only game which can give us sharkz with lazerz on their headz can be NOLF3, we can just hope.
