In the third wave of Mobile Drifting Ballistic Missiles, nearly a thousand broke through the defensive line, but all were still shot down by the escort warships' MS units.

A single Hedgehog Missile Battleship could carry more than twenty thousand missiles.
Besides protecting MS Carriers, supply ships, and the like, the United Army's escort ships and destroyers considered the Hedgehog Missile Battleships their highest-priority protection targets.
The Army-level Fleet of the Third Army, First Grand Army Group, had ten Hedgehog Missile Battleships. Besides the Hedgehog Missile Battleships launching missiles, the other warships launched missiles as well.
Without Warheads, the fourth wave of Mobile Drifting Ballistic Missiles shot down more than six hundred remotely operated MS units such as Scorpion Tigers, while more than three thousand Mobile Drifting Ballistic Missiles broke through the defensive line.
More than a hundred broke through the MS defensive line of the escort warships and struck various Dion warships from different directions.
However, just a few Mobile Drifting Ballistic Missiles could not inflict
