1. An intercept vehicle comprising:

  • (a) a flexible, packable, deployable web-like structure with means of post deployment contraction by means of drawstring action, (b) a plurality of masses connected to the perimeter of said web-like structure, (b) a means of controllably coupling momentum of said masses to contract said deployed web-like structure around a destructive flying object upon collision of a destructive flying object against said web-like structure, (d) said masses contain activatable means of slowing said contractable web-like structure and said destructive flying object, Whereby the tension produced by the inertia of said masses contracting said web around said destructive flying object upon collision, combined with the tension produced by the activatable means of slowing said web and entangled weapon, create forceful web contraction to capture, forcefully hold and drastically slow the velocity of said destructive flying object.
