    Couldn’t you just coat the outside of the missile in a mirror and reflect most of the laser? Am I dumb?

      That probably wouldn't work in the first place and the coating for a hypersonic missile needs to be able to resist the heat caused from moving at hypersonic speeds.

        Seems like a solvable problem with modern material science, I’m just wondering if my base idea would work or not. Aren’t lasers completely countered by mirrors?

          I mean reflective coatings only reflect some of the light not all. Also, that's literally the opposite of what you want to do for radar stealth.

            Radar stealth doesn’t matter at Mach 12 does it? Even if they detect you it’s too late
