Australia commits to 'son of star wars'

The United States and Australia have signed a pact to develop a
controversial missile defence shield, known as 'son of star wars', as
they expressed concerns about proliferation of ballistic missiles
capable of carrying weapons of mass destruction.

Defence Minister Robert Hill and US Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfeld
signed the memorandum of understanding at the State Department for joint
missile defence system development and testing.

Mere coincidence this was done the same day India announced that the
Agni III will have intercontinental range?
