I think the one that veers off was a Patriot missile that went off course.

patriots are for theater based ballistic missiles not orbit entering, intercontinental ballistics. Patriot system works ok against older stuff like Scuds but I doubt the success rate would be more than 60% against newer missiles.

If, on a peaceful afternoon in your backyard in America, you’ve never thought of what it would be like if rockets started landing nearby, and what you would do in response, then you’re not as paranoid as I am.
