Number counting

Now, as a programmer... if this thing is number counting, do you think it'll have the logic to look up the flight list and see which plane the missle is aiming, cross reference against the expecting passengers and the plane vs. the time of day and expected passengers in the near by terminal and decide whether or not to shoot the missle down?

I mean after all, if it's there game to "number count" then it'd be better hitting a plane with it's crew and 1 passenger then a busy terminal at rush hour?

Sounds, great...
