Re:U.S. Air Force has shot down multiple air-launched missil... by aeternus on Tuesday May 07, 2019 @04:03PM (#19852945)
A retroreflector does not require aiming nor moving parts, it simply uses geometry to ensure that a lightbeam is always reflected back to its source. Retroreflectors are cheap to build and well-understood.

It is a very interesting idea, the reflectors likely will burn but you could cover the missile with them. You only need to reflect enough to disable/weaken the emitter.
