The energy density falls off by the square of the area for the beam at a cubed fall off for the distance covered. That is why the navy weapons are currently defensive in nature, as the incoming missile gets closer the energy stopping it is growing exponentially to failure.
    Agreed. Another possibility would be intrusion on the command link. But that's tough to do covertly.

    While we do have technology that does "shoot" electronic interference, it's only small scale and primarily for use against small drones at a relatively close distance. Like you said, any technology that could possibly exist on a scale big enough to be effective on a missile or rocket would be above top secret at the Pentagon level and like anything else only people with the need to know would have access to such info.
