SOBS Angara
The SOBS Angara is a spacial, orbital bombardment satellite that is the first spaced based ion cannon ever constructed in the Soviet Union. Construction began in 1978 under the Federative Special Aeronautics Research Bureau (FSARB) and to be completed in 2010. The deadline, however, was reached approximately four years early on January 4, 2006.
After the Soviet Reformation in 2006, the Angara fell under the control of Laurasia.
Specifications
The Angara is a massive accomplishment for the Soviet Union and is considered one of the great accomplishments of this millennia. The following is released specifications of the Angara orbital, ion cannon:
- Name: Angara
- Satellite class: Spacial, orbital bombardment satellite
- Main armament: Destructive electro-magnetic pulse cannon (DEMP cannon; ion cannon)
- Secondary armament(s): Four nuclear MIRV’s, one electro-magnetic defense system
- Electronics: Global position system (GPS), Terran geographic analysis systems (TGAS), Orbital Bombardment System Communication Hub (OBS-ComHub), High-sensing Gyroscopic System (HSGS)
- Approximate cost: Ъ4,000,000,000 (7,600,000,000 USD)
Mechanics
The satellite is kept in orbit by a array of positioning rocketry and sensors. This array of rockets and sensors keep the Angara in a high-earth orbit to insure relative safety from other space travel and earth’s gravitational pull.
The Angara is kept at a 90̊ incline with the surface of the earth. This is due to high-standards of safety and for military targeting purposes. These systems are kept up-to-date by a team of four crew members aboard the Angara. Each crew spends approximately three months aboard the massive satellite before exchanging with another crew from earth.
DEMP cannon
The destructive, electro-magnetic pulse cannon (DEMP cannon) is one of the newest weaponry developed within the Soviet Union for completely military purposes - as of yet. The power needed to generate a damaging DEMP beam is collected by the massive solar panels attached to the Angara.
The DEMP cannon when fired, fires a beam of electrically charged atoms in a high concentration to an indicated target field. The bombardment of electrically charged atoms impacts the molecules and molecular bonds that create an object (both organic and inorganic) causing the bonds to break and the molecules to turn back into base elements. This method of destruction allows for precise targeting without the after-affect that fallout has on the environment.
Testing
- January 10, 2006: The first test of the Angara was over the Kazakh SSR in the Soviet Union. The test was successful in destroying a single unit of artillery amidst a field of assorted vehicles. This test was analyzing the precision and accuracy of the Angara satellite.
- January 13, 2006: Tested over the Uzbek SSR in the Soviet Union. Was successful in forming a trench approximately three miles long and four hundred feet wide. Used to irrigate a desert region.
- January 20, 2006: Tested in the Indian Ocean. Neutralized a abandoned fleet of Soviet destroyers. Caused oceanic temperature hike for approximately four hours. Most recent test of the Angara. It tested the sheer power of the DEMP cannon.
- January 30, 2006: Test fired over remote Hyperborea (Australia). Cannon could continue to fire for approximately ten minutes before being forced to shutdown for cooling.
- February 5, 2006: Successful in firing fifty-seven DEMP firings in one hour over the Exetonian SSR. This final test passing has allowed Angara to be placed on the status of "Active Duty" and able to be used in conflicts.
