Which country has the best missile defense system?

Missile defense systems which can intercept launched missiles before they land come in two flavors: In terms of long-range Anti-Ballistic Missile (ABM) systems which are employed in case of long-range nuclear warfare, the United States, Israel, and People's Republic of China have the most advanced technologies in the area. In terms of regional missile defense, the United States, Russia, People's Republic of China, France, and India have such systems. Notes: Although the United Kingdom has both long-range and short-range missile defense systems, their usage and development rely heavily on the guidance of the United States. Similar cases include regional missile defense systems stationed in Japan nand the Republic of China (Taiwan). Russia, being a large cross-continental country can relocate its anti-missile systems anywhere within the state territory, thus, eliminating the need of developing long-range missile defense. European states, due to their lesser sizes (destroyed much too quickly in a nuclear war), proximity (easily reached by a short or medium-range missile from a neighbouring state) and protection from the United States (NATO and other defense treaties), do not have the immediate reason to develop long-range missile defense.

How did the Oryx come to New Mexico?

This African antelope was introduced to the White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico. The oryx was brought from the Kalahari Desert in Africa to an experimental range at Red Rock New Mexico. Federal law prohibits introducing a wild animal from another country into the wild in this country so offspring were obtained at this experimental range to introduce onto the White Sands Missile Range. Between 1969 and 1977, 93 oryx were released on White Sands Missile Range. There are now about 3000 animals in residence. Annual hunts for the oryx began in 1974 on the Missile Range. Oryx can weigh up to 450 pounds. They stand 47 inches at the shoulder. Both males and females have horns that average 34 inches long. Their brown coloring with distinctive black and white markings allows them to hide among desert shrubs.
