Almost new news

[sirs]

Been watching too many Marvel movies.  Currently, there are NO, planes that can just "shoot down a ballistic warhead" coming down

[Plane]

They have planes that could shoot it down for sure. Pretty much any fighter could do that.

Nope.

There is no aircraft in existence , nor missile , that can down its target at greater range than this weapon.

So what would you shoot at it with?

[Xavier_Onassis]

The laser plane would have to take out all the fighter planes first.

...and which Hollywood movie is that?

[Xavier_Onassis]

One taking place in Plane's mind between huge laser equipped US cargo planes and theoretical North Korean fighters.

reinforcing the point there is no such plane that could actually shoot down a NK nuclear missle, as you originally claimed

[Plane]

The laser plane would have to take out all the fighter planes first.

Not a problem.

For fighters the range is shorter and the speeds are lower and the vulnerability is greater.

Missiles headed into the laser carrying plane would be the toughest target , but these can be burned also.

I expect it would work best to have two or more laser carrying planes so that they could cover each other somewhat. Missiles are much more vulnerable  to laser burn on their sides than on their noses.
