  (-:  	Ahh, but he stated a purely a defensive weapon.  
	How about a thermonuclear warhead with a deadman trigger!
	Armed only above a certain altitude and set to go off if
	the plane is destroyed.  If a Russian pilot has a few
	megatons go off in his face he will think twice about
	shooting down another airliner!  :-)
