Could Northrop Grumman MRV (Mission Robotic Vehicle) act as a killer satellite?

Above: The MRV (Mission Robotic Vehicle)

The MRV (Mission Robotic Vehicle) is a satellite with two robot hands. Its mission is to assist and repair satellites in orbit. And the big question is: could those arms be used as weapons against other satellites? The answer is yes. Any satellite itself is a weapon. Satellites can be driven to impact other satellites. 

Or they can have some killer vehicles. The reason for those killer satellites will be the tool. That makes it possible to destroy the vital elements of warfare. Satellites play a bigger and more important role. In modern warfare. Those systems, like GPS. They are playing a vital role in targeting and weapons control. Those navigation satellites. 

They play a vital role when drones fly to their targets. And aircraft and satellite-guided bombs. They need satellite navigation. 

Satellites provide an ultra-fast communication line between headquarters and field operatives. They provide vital intelligence data. And. That makes them an important target for the military. FOBS (Fractional Orbital Bombardment System) means satellites that carry nuclear weapons. Those orbital launch platforms. They can minimize the reaction time. Of the defense. Those satellites. They can launch nuclear bombs. Or they can dive to the target. And detonate their weapon. 

In original models. The FOBS uses low-earth orbit. But it's possible to launch those weapons. Into. High orbit. The high-orbit FOBS can be launched. Using high-power boosters like “Proton” rockets. Those weapons can lurk in orbit for even years.

 

Those nukes can wait years in orbit. But this kind of system. It requires a system. That returns it to Earth. It is not used. So the FOBS. It could be a miniature shuttle. That carries an internal nuclear weapon. These systems can be like space-era kamikaze drones. 

The FOBS-EMP system. It will not necessarily give any warning. About. The EMP strike. The EMP weapon travels over the targeted area. And then the nuclear weapon inside that system. It is detonated. That system blinds large areas.  That satellite must not release its shell for detonation. Like it does in the 007 movie “Goldeneye”. The satellite. It can have the golden layer. That maximizes gamma-ray production. And that boosts the EMP.

When antimatter particles hit the atmosphere. Forming a gamma ray. And that gamma ray forms the EMP pulse. The. Nuclear weapon. with a golden layer. It can also detonate in the air tank. There, those air molecules. They can create the EMP immediately. This kind of EMP satellite.  Can destroy most of the satellites. And. Other electronics on the ground. This means that killer satellites have one mission. It is to take out orbital nukes. That orbital nuke. It can play. 

Abandoned satellite. The satellite can act as a normal satellite. Then it can jump to a very high trajectory. Then it can begin its FOBS module. This sleeping satellite. It can wait for the wake-up signal. There. At high altitude. That satellite. It can detonate without warning. Or it can dive into the atmosphere and detonate itself. 

When we think about satellites with robotic arms. Those satellites can push other satellites off their trajectory. This new MRV satellite. It can also act as an intelligence satellite.  Its targets are other satellites. MRV satellite. It can use its abilities to make contact. And research other satellites. That are abandoned. Or in some other ways interesting. The satellite. That can fix another satellite's trajectory. It can also push that other satellite into the wrong trajectory. The system ti can also slow the speed of another satellite. Pulling it into the opposite direction. That causes a situation. 

That targeted satellite. It starts to fall to the ground. The Russians are also interested in this kind of two-armed satellite. Or satellites with manipulators. Those satellites can make attacks and disturb other satellites. They can affect other satellites' trajectories. That is vital for navigation satellites. Unlike. The use of killer vehicles like lasers and tungsten arrows. Those mechanical pushes. They can be kept secret. If killer satellites attack another satellite. Such incidents can give warning. About. The bad plans.
