It would. Acting in concert with the US Navy's Aegis Ashore radar station in Poland, UKR would stand a dighting chance against Russian MIRVs. The take-away is that Putin so fears NATO weapons, that he has attempted nuclear blackmail. It wont work. He's bluffing.

CHASIV YAR /2020 UTC 21 NOV/ UKR units in contact at rail right of way in southeast Chasiv Yar. Russian airstrikes target civilians in Kostiantynivka.
They said, 'It was not an 'Intercontinental Ballistic missile'-- which was parsing the truth. The Yar, which IS an ICBM did not travel on an 'intercontinental' trajectory. Meaning only that it was used within the contentment of Eurasia.
This resulted in the closure of the US Embassy in Kyiv yesterday, as the US stated that a Russian missile attack was imminent.
The 'Yar' has a Circular Error Probable (CEP) of 100m, (meaning it will land within 100m of a programmed target.
It is assessed that the US monitored the Russian launch facility at Astrakhan and was alerted to the Yar being readied for launch.
The multi staged missile uses both solid / liquid fueled engines and can be deployed from Transport Erector Launch (TEL) vehicles, or from silos. It has a range of 11,000 Km (6,800 Mi), a max speed of Mach 25 (19,000 mph).
It is likely that the missile launched at Ukraine deployed 8 decoy MIRVs. These re-entry vehicles traveled at Mach 25 (19,000 mph) and cause significant damage to the areas the impacted.
The ‘Yar’ an upgrade the Topol-M ICBM, utilizing a payload “bus” modified to carry Multiple Independently Targeted Reentry Vehicles (MIRVs).
The weapon is capable of delivering a total of 8 reentry vehicles— a mixture of live 200KT nuclear warheads and decoys.
ICBM STRIKE? Despite US denials, video of the Russian attack on the Ukrainian city of Dnipro indicates it was hit by a conventionally armed RS-24 ‘Yar’ ICMB, launched from the Astrakhan area of the Russian Federation.
KUPIANSK AXIS /1615 UTC NOV 20/ Multiple Russian attacks fail north of city and are driven back. Airstrikes indicate that Ukrainian troops are in contact S of Pischane.
