I wouldn't try shooting any missiles except the large capship and skipper missiles though: 1- they're slow 2- they're not fired at you Trying to shoot down an image rec missile aimed at you usually ends with you getting the missile in the teeth...Bad Thing. Avoid'em if you can. Afterbruners and a steady eye on the radar, coupled with frantic movements of the joystick (I can tell you frantic movements are easy if all of your armour is gone and you know an impact will kill you ;-}) usu help.
