Shit idea
Yet again they've crocked the tests by mounting explosives on board the target.
Also, a tenner says it won't work in rain or fog.

Bad guys are always surrounded by containers of Tannerite.

I don't disagree with them mounting explosives on targets that are supposed to be incoming missiles.
Allegedly it WILL work in rain up to "moderate" levels, fog or a light to moderate sea spray. But I don't know whether they're using the WMO agreed definitions there
