"I bet it would be good for anti aircraft and anti missile."

Maybe, but you have to keep it trained on the incoming threat for long enough, a difficult task if the threat is coming in at +Mach numbers.

The targeting systems are the main weakness in the SDI scenarios for ICBMs, although considerable progress has been made since Reagan first coined the term "Star Wars".
