It doesn't need to outmaneuver if it can shoot down it's opponents before they can engage
This system should be shutdown. What if enemies use it to guide their rockets?
Yes. You can be on the defensive and still bomb enemy positions
Why? Tell me a better way to fight an enemy that uses civilians as camouflage.
Against advancing armies, the target can deliver itself.
urban combat is not working for them. but their rockets are working. just you can't conquer using rockets. you need to go door to door in a prolonged war
If your enemy can make you use up your expensive weapons by attacking you with something cheap, eventually you run out of the good stuff. Then they can hit you. This has already happened in Ukraine, in both directions. Early in the war, there was a video of a Russian helicopter firing off many flares to counter heat-seeking missiles. The Ukrainian attacker waited until the flares were exhausted, then fired one heat-seeking missile and shot down the helicopter.
Can you elaborate on "when under attack, not very predictable"?
What if it's shields are up?
When you know your opponent has counterstrike capability, first strike stops being rational.
