To keep others from obtaining the technology you just launched at them, not to mention preventing a major global-thermonuclear war (seriously, one may think the missile is an incoming ICBM/SLBM and start a nuke fest).
And there is no substitute for the stealth of the aircraft. Satilites are watched by other satillites, ect.

It just needs to be manned, though. That would be amazing to ride in.
