Answer 1

Yes, ranging from “shoot it with another missile” to “hit it with a laser”, but there is understandably little else that the public knows about these systems, as if you know what’s happening, you can work to stop it. And there’s enough nukes that some are going to hit. It’s not like we could test these systems on the scale of full WWIII.

So yes, but we don’t know much, and don’t rely on those systems, there’s enough nukes that if one flies, it’s not a good time. Just don’t launch the nuke in the first place
