It's very plausible that we would place assets in orbit to intercept ICBMs, similar to the Strategic Defense Initiative. If DoD wanted to develop such a system, there's a good chance it's going up on a SpaceX rocket as a classified payload. Claiming they have no competency is silly since a good portion of their business is National Security Space Launch missions.
