Still a "guess" : Perhaps the game could differentiate the PoH of anti-aircraft missiles with/without lateral thruster against anti-ballistic missiles.

I suspect this incident most likely explains why the USN was so eager to get the PAC-3 (lateral thruster equipped) into the MK-41 VLS.

The operation announced today on social media X (formerly known as Twitter): “On March 21, an EUNAVFOR ASPIDES French ship while providing close protection to merchant shipping in South Red Sea, intercepted and destroyed 3 ballistic missiles posing a direct threat to the FoN.“

ASTER combines a powerful aerodynamic control «PAF» with a direct force control «PIF», using lateral thrusters right at the centre of gravity of the kill vehicle. This innovative control concept provides the weapon with unequalled agility and manoeuvrability within its whole intercept domain, especially at high altitude.
