360 degree active intercept has to be realistic...unless there's some engineering reason why it can't be done, but what could that be?

As for the Typhoon, the damage level was set so that it could barely survive a single ADCAP hit. It'll take 5 50s or 54s to take it down. Considering that the 50/54s are very small weapons, and a Typhoon is the size of a WWII carrier, that doesn't bother me too much. And even if it did, I'd still wonder just how often anything that carries the 50/54 would end up getting a shot at a Typhoon. Russia keeps them under the ice and close to home...if someone takes a shot at a Typhoon, it'll be an SSN.
