I'd go (C), the barrage does not affect that target and no more targets
in the AoE are drawn for; the arty unit's systems are out, subject to
the standard Firer Systems Out chit effects.

Doesn't make any sense; missiles simply move last, no matter what, and
attack resolve if within range at the end of that movement.

Both; keep in mind the difference in scales involved between the two
games.

In SG, trees large enough to be an impediment to infantry get marked,
and so it doesn't take much of a copse to show up on the board.  Gravs
have no problem popping over trees at that scale.  At DS scales, we're
talking large enough collections of trees to impede armour, which is a
much larger stand.

That said, I generally treat gravs as NoE fliers (capable of
pop-and-drop over ridges, etc) in DS /anyway/, since I am aiming at
modeling Renegade Legion's gravs.
