Aegis

Aegis was a missile defense technology developed by the Solarian League Navy.
Vaunted as a revolutionary improvement in missile defense, the Aegis system essentially amounted to the removal of a couple of broadside energy mounts off of Solarian warships and replacing them with additional phased array radar units for missile tracking. Main missile tubes could then be used to launch canisters of counter missiles that would thicken the warship's broadsides of counter missiles. The system was considered ineffectual by other navies such as the Royal Manticoran Navy. (, )
