Tim,

Ballistic missile attack?

Why send a ballistic missile, when you can plant a suitcase in the middle of LA or NY? How about a truckload of ANFO at a nuclear power plant?

The premise of an effective anti-ballistic missile system is so mindless, it defies comprehension.

and possibly defend our country or its armed forces against a ballistic missile attack but I guess that is not something that would be considered useful in your opinion.

Tim,

What country do you think has the capability to pull off an attack that our present system could not repel?
