RE: Drifting to DSII (was Re: New Fighter Types (drifting OT....))

Actually...yes.  But I was thinking that the THOR system (a real
project, 
never developed, AFAIK...) was more along the lines of a crowbar, or 
something.  Fired from OWP (Orbital Weapons Platforms).  We never made
the 
good stuff (Orion, Thor, etc.).
