Kill vehicle to maneuver itself into the path of the icbm, aiming to destroy it by the sheer force of the impact, a bullet hitting a bullet. The pentagon said that the kill vehicle intercepted and destroyed the target in a direct collision. 36 interceptors are based in silos in california and alaska, but this was the first test against a missile traveling at the trajectory and speed of an icbm, a weapon which could threaten the u.
