The A380 is quite a large airplane and would make a fine target. But, if you sit yourself down about 2000 feet from the departure end of the runway, you can easily take out a 100 passenger airplane with the missile. I don't know if any of you fellows have sat off the departure or arrival end of a runway at a big airport, but these airliners are huge pieces of equipment when viewed from underneath.
Sitting ducks. Every one of them.
