Dual-Use Propulsive Hypersonic Trajectories of Super-Heavy Launch Vehicles: Precision Kinetic Impact and Non-Nuclear Planetary Defense

Traditional kinetic bombardment concepts face signifi-cant payload mass limitations due to orbital mechan-ics constraints. This paper proposes a novel theo-retical framework utilizing super-heavy launch vehicles(SHLVs), such as SpaceX’s Starship architecture, func-tioning as powe...
