Nice try... the minuteman (the "enemy missile") was launched, then the interceptor was launched. "A modified Minuteman II missile took off from Vandenberg at 9:59 p.m. EST, the Pentagon said. Instead of explosives, its warhead carried sensors to track its progress during the test. The dummy warhead also carries a large balloon to be jettisoned in an attempt to fool the interceptor - a tactic that the interceptor in this test was programmed to ignore. After 22 minutes, the interceptor missile was launched from Kwajalein Atoll in the South Pacific"
