On that note...Lockheed Martin's MKV ('Multiple Kill Vehicle') from 2008.
The MKV is designed to allow a single interceptor to destroy a ballistic missile equipped with multiple warheads or countermeasures. In Lockheed's design, a seeker-equipped carrier vehicle maneuvers into the path of the ballistic missile then dispenses and guides small kill vehicles to their targets. In its first test, the MKV-L hovered for 20 seconds in a special facility at Edwards AFB, California, while recognizing and tracking a simulated target.
EKV/KV/KW/KKV/LEAP (Exoatmospheric Kill Vehicles) Compilation video of Exoatmospheric projectiles' hover test from 1989. "Capable of instant changes of direction!" Engineers sure sounded very happy! 30 years later one can only imagine what kind of propulsion they have now powering some of those unacknowledged UFOs.
