SDI (not Bush's)
Does the Civ2 SDI improvement double the defender against ground domain missiles?

A question I've never asked myself but which is indeed a very good question...

Err, I thought that SAM battery did that. I am pretty sure that SDI has no effect on any kind of missile. Feel free to correct me.

Rats!
Only air missiles trigger the @BATTERY popup, and it doesn't appear that the defense factor is enhanced v. ground missiles. Didn't realize that the test would be so straightforward.

Edit: oops! I had to interrupt my reply above to keep the pasta pot from boiling over. Didn't see your reply St Leo. I think it goes as follows when air units attack cities.

Air units attacking fighters trigger the @SCRAMBLE popup. (x2 v fighter, x4 v bomber). Don't know if the defending fighter's domain is important.

SAM improvement triggers @BATTERY if the defender is not a fighter. (x2)

SDI improvement triggers @BATTERY if the attacker is a (air) missile. (x2)

SDI and SAM together trigger @BATTERY2 if the attacker is a (air) missile. (x4)

Don't know how AEGIS works in combo with any of these.
