Re: Fuel, Ramjets, and the Darwin Awards (was Re: in 'defense' of FT missiles... ;-) )

If you have ramjet fields protecting/blocking your front, and can't fire

aft, the battles will get very interesting.  You'll want to be able to
cause 
side effects in nearby stellar bodies and all that jazz.

Besides, aren't ramjet fields vulnerable to a widely sprayed mass of 
fissionable particles ?  I thought the ramjet would bring it together
and 
form a critical mass, destroying the ship.
