I understand that part even though a direct hit would be better
THAAD is a kinetic energy weapon. hit-to-kill.

True but that happens with most ballistic missiles too.Such missile can achieve Hypersonic speed in dive............
Yes you can have kinetic energy kill vehicles. But why will you use KE missiles against air targets ?does a missile need a warhead to be successful ? Wouldn't a collision from a high speed projectile destroy most aircraft ?
This means we will not have to buy the expensive Meteor
Meteors will be ordered.
May be in lesser numbers, but they will be ordered.
IAF inquired to MBDA to integrating it on SU-30 MKIfor Rafale. yes & Mirage 2005 ?
METEOR would be ordered only for Rafales after the first 36 at this point, as they would be diverted from the French government order and would be F3+ standard. The Mirage weapon pack does not include METEOR, only MICA, since the fuselage stations can carry long missiles like METEOR, which made the integration into the M2K useless.
