[Nepleslia] SMDIoN Equipment Questions

Got a couple of tech-related questions regarding SMDIoN equipment:

First, are there any "physical" starfighter-sized missile-countering systems available besides the ubiquitous PLA and the primarily atmospheric-based Na-BCAC32? (i.e. flares, chaff, etc.)

Second, are there any specific measurements and/or real-world equivalents available for the following munitions?
I know it's a rather peculiar query; it's because, well, I plan on creating them for reference/decorative purposes during the Goliath's (lengthily) modeling process.
 
Other folks can feel free to chime in here, but currently there are no other physical anti-missile defenses.

The creators of those articles are not currently available. I would just model them as you see fit.
 
"Pufferfish" Airburst Missiles

from the article
Length:.6 meters [60cm or 2 feet]

Mini-Missiles
from the article:
''Mini-missiles are typically about the size of an 8 oz can''


The other two don't have listed values, but based off the images of the 80mm munitions i'd wager they're at least 30=40cm in length [1-1.3feet]

The W3102 is the size of a car, so it's probably between an AIM-12 and a BUK

edit - that's totally mm and not cm on the picture
 
Creator of half of this stuff here.

80mm is scaled down from a 120mm modern day tank round. Your assumptions on size are basically correct.

The k1 missiles should have been largely replaced with the Jam32, but they are about 2ish meters and some change long.

If you have more questions feel free to ask. I can respond better when I'm not on my phone.
