Only if it's already on the terminal run. Before that, it could change course rather efficiently, throwing the launched SAM's off-course.


Which is actually good in terms of throwing off the interception calculations, because reducing the velocity made the missile course even less predictable.


First of all, it may simply be programmed to make random turns at random points of trajectory. Secondly, nothing forbade missile from actually carrying onboard illumination warning station. We are talking about heavy Russian missiles, after all; our missiles used penetration aids and jammers since 1970s!
