    Hyperdrive weapons

    I have an idea for a hyperdrive weapon that would penetrate any shield

    We have seen in a few episodes of SG-1 that Carter said it is important to calculate the hyperdrive window exactly or they would end up emerging within the enemy ship, or inside the Earth.

    How about using this knowledge to deliver weapons? Doesn't even have to be nukes, but any ballistic weapon etc. I am pretty sure the insides of a enemy ship (hive ship for example) is not as tough as its external armour.

    Oh one other thing. Why is the hyperspace window different colour in the Pegasus galaxy?

    or is it diffirent in the MW

    the beammeupscotty tactic for weapons into a ship might not work cus they have to calculate the coordinates to were to beam it. maybe it's impossible to do taht if a ship is moving that fast of in that layer of space.

    it's never fully explained why a ship cannot fire weapons in hyperspace either. so can't really tell for sure

      The wraith could develop shields to block the weapons from entering there ships.

        They would need to be able to prevent objects from emerging from hyperspace inside the ships. Not even Anubis could.

          Might not be too practicle to fit all missiles etc. with their own hyperdrive.

            No, that is probably true.

            However, would it not be posisble to simply open the hyperdrive window and then shoot the missile, bomb, objects through it? This is what Carter did witht he big asteroid. They did not have any engines to "push" it in the hyperdrive window, but simply let its own speed take it in.

              I thought the ship had to wrap the asteroid in a hyperspace bubble and go through with it?

                Ah yes. Hm. So you would need to do that with the nukes etc. Well, maybe not impossible to create a little hyperdrive generator nukes. =) Surely not cheap though, but then a nuke isn't either.

                  Better yet: have you ever heard of B5's "bonehead maneuver"?

                  For those who haven't, you basically open a hyper-space portal inside your target. Boom, no more target.

                    Actually the Bonehead Maneuver consisted of opening a hyperspace window inside a hyper gate. A portal within a portal, if you will. Some after thought makes me think that the maneuver would have caused more than just one hell of an esplosion; say a rift/tear in the space/time continuum....
                    But I digress....

                      The Wraiths should have tried that with Atlantis.

                        What you're refering 2 didn't have a name and was only used in "In the Beginning" by the Mimbari Destroyer Black Star (the one Sheridan nuked ). It always annoyed me that they didn't use it in the series, it would have been very efective even against Shadows and Vorlons, and less dangerous that the actual "bonehead maneuver".

                          now they have a need to...
                          the death squids penetrated all shields so even if they did have shields it would be rendered pratically useless. so why would they add it on if it wasnt going to help?
                          with the dedalus there they have somthing that a shield would work against. IMO SGA needs to take quick action to make sure that they can take down as much as they can before the wraith make shields
