I believe that we are behind both China and Russia in their development.

I believe that no country has a dependable defense for them. We have some mechanisms that will fill the air with munitions that theoretically would cause it to detonate before reaching the target, but nothing that can be depended on, at all. If Russia or China were to top them with a tac nuke, we'd be fricked.
