It seems like this is awakening cold war memories:

Look out for more tests, and new missile technology. Russia boasts to have missiles that can bypass Western Front technology easily. With a hefty oil budget of earnings second only to Saudi Arabia I would not doubt it.

The missile defense system is designed to shoot down a specific missile or two coming form a rogue state that is likely to have only one or two of them. All that Russia would have to do is launch a significant number of missiles and overload the defense system. It really isnt that complicated. So to say they have the technology to elude the defense system...yeah...all they needed was enough missiles.

Well I guess there is some safety in thinking that you can shoot down some of them. However, I'm sure a missile 'defense' system can always double as an attack system too. It is just more diplomatic to call it a 'defense' system.

Will those missiles be enough effective to destroy the asteroid coming towards earth?

No matter how you look at it I believe the cold war is slowly starting back up. I believe that even with the failing economies around the globe you will have some trying to profit out of it all. I would not be surprised to see some countries taken over in all of this.
