A laser powerful enough to kill a missile, is likely to be powerful enough to kill an aircraft. Also effective against many potential ground targets.

I wonder what the effective range would be and would clouds or smoke reduce the range.

Yes, but it appears this is a defensive weapon. As such, I would deduce that it has a fairly limited range.
