Tracking a 28 inch by 18 inch stealth warhead is extremely difficult.

That is only the final stage. Just prior to warhead separation, you have a fairly large spacecraft with glowing boosters to target.

And you’ll already be tracking it from the moment of ignition on the ground so there are several minutes to line up your shots.
