Umm, I don't think the system was designed to shoot down anything aimed
at Russia.
But, as you know, it's much easier to take a shot when you've established trajectory. So the radars go into Eastern Europe, to get a bead, and the missiles go to Canada (or Northe Dakotoia -- is there really any difference?) What's in it for Latvia or Estonia?
The same thing that's in it for Cuba.
