But what about the good old M.A.D. doctrine? Mutually Assured Destruction.

Koko's perfectly OK with killing three quarters of a million people in flight. If country X launches an attack on her, you think she'll have qualms about reducing their capital city into a pile of rubble? Just for starters?

It's also possible that the satellites are part of a distributed computer system, so to take down Jormungand would involve downing a large number of satellites.

There's a lot more to the plan than just downing all airborne vessels, I think.
