Maybe you right, I'm not any expert on this.

I guess these THAAD is somehow like the Iron Dome Israel has-It can calculate if a Mortar or Rocket is about to hit public areas and if so-the Dome kills the mortar or rocket. If yes then the THAAD will only engage the North Korean missile if it a threat.

The next step-I don't think it is in Japan, SK and USA interest to increase the situation by sending a Ballistic missile to wards the area from where this NK rocket came from.

What do I know.
