In my last major encounter, more than 99% of 6000 enemy Anti-ship missiles were shot down by beam corvettes that literally cost less than 6000 AMMs, never mind the ships to launch them.
If you can become impervious to realistic missile attacks and outrun/outrange enemy beam war ships, cleanup is a turkey shoot.
