Active Vehicle Protection System
Passive Vehicle Protection System
Standoff Decoy System
I'm trying to think about the value of fitting these to spacecraft, in two situations
(1) On a small craft whose role is to get away from attacking spacecraft
So, a gig/boat carrying important personnel from ship to planet or vice versa. Its role is not to engage with attackers, but just to get to its destination as quickly and safely as possible.
Can these vehicle systems be used to shield the small craft from attacking spacecraft?
I am guessing that maybe a 20-30dT craft might need 2 installations?
(2) Assault landing ship becoming an FOB
A spacecraft of around 300-500dT that lands on a planet being assaulted carrying a company or couple of platoons and becomes their forward operating base. Can these vehicle systems be used to shield the landing/landed ship from ground-based weapons?
I am guessing that a landed spacecraft might need, say, 1 installation per 20dT?
