What defines interceptor? What I worked on was a surface to air missile. I guess intercepting a super fast object at Mach 5 is harder than hitting a jet.

In this case, the ability for a hypersonic missile to hit another hypersonic missile.

And, yes, it is harder to hit something going Mach 5+ than a jet.
