its a hard task, I would think 56% may even be too high

Put SM3s in neighboring friendly countries then. Where we don't have friendly nations have Aegis BMD destroyers with SM3s patrol, like we already do. They are very capable of knocking out ICBMs above the atmosphere during the midcourse phase of a hostile ballistic missile's flight.

I'm not as familiar with our long range ICBM land based defenses in the US, but if they can't hit them the above is our best bet until we develop something better
