There is a precedent for MT missiles being 
harder to kill then salvo missiles (and the
real rule if it exists isn't easy to see from the
book), However, even if you use the above
as your guide, a reroll hardly makes since
since a salvo missile is a single unit, not
a salvo, so what would a reroll allow you do
do -- kill the missile more than once?

Note in page 2 of More Thrust it says that
it takes a 6 to kill a MT missile from a
PDAF or ADAF.
