Interceptorer
Interceptorer is a term used in speculative and fictional contexts to denote a class of systems designed to intercept and neutralize hazards by intercepting their trajectories or communications. The concept spans several domains, including aerospace defense (missile interception), cybersecurity (neutralizing data exfiltration or malware channels), and space safety (removal or redirection of debris).
Core components typically include an integrated sensor network, real-time tracking, predictive modeling, and an actuation mechanism.
Within defense planning, interceptors are evaluated for interception probability, engagement envelope, and compatibility with existing command
History and usage: Interceptorer as a concept emerged in late 20th and early 21st century technical literature
