Nonetheless, at the end of its flight it still has to raise its altitude

high enough to come down on the top of its target.  Given the level of 
technological advance we're assuming for game PSB, even that fraction of
a 
second at an altitude even a meter or two higher than normal should make
it 
easier for a PDS/ADS to recognize and kill such a missile than to hit a 
side-attack missile that stays low all the way to target.
