I believe back in the day of Regan's "Star Wars" project, evidence was deliberately leaked to the USSR that the Patriot System was intended for use in space against their ICBM's. Apparently the con worked and was one of the reasons the USSR caved in. So perhaps the Russians are now playing catch-up?
