Nah, problem with the Chandelier is that it's too big of a railgun to move. That's why it had all of the support beams and that's why it was constructed as it was. Thing is, though, the Stauros shells were "pockets" of cruise missiles clumped together. So in theory, those cruise missiles could then separate to engage individual asteroids. That's where the Chandelier's value would have lied as an asteroid defense system.
