While stuck in traffic, bad traffic, I began wondering: how difficult would it
be to intercept an ICBM lifting off out of somewhere like North Korea? Seems
like it would be an 'easy' target: slow, going up, not evading. Or, would it
be more effective to have a cruiser wait off shore to intercept with surface to
air?
Thx,

Off the shore of the target or the launch site? My guess is that it
would be easier to hit a missile on its way up, as long as you knew
when and where it was launching from.
