Americans frightened Russian laser killer satellites

Military and diplomats believe that the country can no longer feel safe.
Ile Poblet, an adviser to the US secretary of state for arms control and verification of agreements, said that Russia could deploy a combat laser system into near-earth orbit capable of disabling the US-powered spacecraft, the Freeh beacon Washington writes. It is clear that the United States already has enough evidence to create a Russian integrated system of countering satellites, including laser weapons in orbit and anti-satellite missiles.

At the same time, the adviser to the state secretary noted that plans for the use of satellite inspectors, capable of maneuvering in orbit and conducting an "inspection" of any spacecraft, are of great concern in the White House and the Pentagon. Speaking about the danger of Russian satellites and weapons in orbit, Poblet did not specify why the United States allocated money for the creation of the Space Corps and why the X-37B unmanned orbital aircraft makes regular flights to orbit.
