Most of the ASAT weapons in the world are modified ICBM missiles, what can destroy their targets with kinetic energy or nuclear warheads. The weapons principle is very simple. That weapon will drive in the collision course to the target, and then the kinetic energy will slam the satellite into the orbital trajectory. Problem with the ASAT weapons is the searching the right target from the orbital trajectory. The satellite is quite a small target, and that’s why the guidance of the missile to the right target is difficult.
