What if we fire a missile at it as it reenters to break it up. More pieces, more surface area, more incineration.
A missile is a way to get explosives from point A to point B. We might as well just put explosives on the ISS in the most effective places, removing the need to aim or get a ship/aircraft in the right place at the right time, plus you probably need far less explosive.
