In 2019, asteroid Apophis will be on a collision course towards us. If it misses us, it will be so close, the naked eye can see it during the day. If it misses us. It was a close call last time, but they believe this next go round might be it. It would destroy an area bigger than Texas, and can you imagine it hitting the ocean? They are "making preparations" apparently, but I can't imagine how they could stop an object that large going that fast. Not the mention Apophis is not moving like a typical asteroid. It is "tumbling", not just moving through orbit. It is quite the rogue asteroid.

I think it was supposed to be 2029, but I thought they debunked the "collision course".

I feel like knowing is half the battle. If we know it, it's path, and the time to look at. We can at least start thinking.

Plotting an intercept course would require foreknowledge of the exact trajectory of an irregularly shaped object as it enters the atmosphere. There would be no way to calculate what direction it would go upon entry.
The meteor would have had to been taken out on it's orbital approach BEFORE it entered the atmosphere, but nobody saw it coming.
Yes but there is no telling what kind of technologies militaries may have, they don't just go advertising this shit on superbowl sunday.
Also, if they saw it coming why would they have told anyone they did? To create mass panic? And they sure wouldn't admit after the fact that they knew it was coming.

You do realize that the U.S's missile defense program Star Wars, one of the most expensive and complex systems to date, doesn't even work. So I really doubt that the Russian military has got it down.
