War Thunder has already incorporated a large number of stand-off precision-guided weapons. As air defense weapons find it increasingly difficult to intercept attack aircraft, intercepting precision-guided munitions has become a common and necessary tactic in combat.
Intercepting an air-to-ground missile can potentially save a teammate, and such actions likely require players to expend valuable air defense missiles.
Given the challenging nature of intercepting precision-guided weapons, there should be a reward for this action, which should be at least at the same level as shooting down a reconnaissance UAV.
