And when they nuked the mother ship it obviously threw some kind of monkey wrench into any of the ships getting their shields back up.
this is the reason i would go with if i made the movie.

From that point I think the air forces all over the worlds had to fight their way in and take out the ships at the same point that Russell did. You'd think at least a few of them would have failed but I guess not.
Lets just call the ships beam a nuke for the sake of discussion. Did the ships nuke over area 51 come after the mothership was nuked by us? If so, that ship was acting by itself. It would be safe to say that all the other ships over the foreign countries would be blasting them all to hell. Might be a losing battle from there considering how crippled the US already was.
Regardless, I love how the President, General and company just went all out in the desert all willy nilly to meet will smith and goldblum to smoke cigars when literally only a few percent of this world battle was complete. Hey we just found a way to hurt these guys so lets just go hug in the desert while the rest of the US and the world burns

If the controllers could keep track of each and their remaining weapons, why did they say "all missles have been fired" when Kay had one left

That was just one battle taking place at that time. The U.S. had actually organized a massive coordinated counter offensive where the world forces were attacking every ship at once. It's not unthinkable that with the shields down and the knowledge of how to destroy them (high explosives to the beam transmitter right before it's fired) that by the time they pick up Will and Jeff that everything is just in mop-up mode.
