SeaRAM!

This is coolbert:

For some time now the Russian Sunburn anti-ship missile has loomed large as a serious and very dangerous threat to the U.S. Navy, and most certainly so with regard to those American aircraft carriers now plying the waters of the Persian Gulf. Confined waters not allowing for normal maneuver and evasive action so is the thought. A DEATH TRAP ESPECIALLY AT THE NARROWS OF THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ!

It is reputed that THREE Sunburn missile direct hits on an American carrier would be sufficient to either destroy the warship totally or render it impotent and an ineffective.

Sunburn called the Mosquito by the Russian, by reputation an anti-ship missile for which there is NO KNOWN DEFENSE! Sunburn supersonic with last-second maneuver making it almost an impossible for a shoot-down.

That PHALANX 20 MM RAPID FIRE CANNON CIWS WILL NOT SUFFICE AGAINST SUNBURN!

If the current confrontation with Iran turns ugly in a big way and very fast, the Iranian does have Sunburn at their disposal and in numbers to fire a devastating barrage the results of which might be catastrophic for the American navy!!

"The P-270 Moskit . . . a Russian supersonic ramjet powered cruise missile . . . its NATO reporting name is SS-N-22 Sunburn"



THERE IS NO REMEDY TO THE SUNBURN? NOT SO FAST CHARLIE BROWN!

Mosquito for which their is a repellent? Mosquito is NOT so invulnerable. SeaRAM is the answer? NOW deployed and effective against the latest and greatest? A MISSILE ABLE TO SHOOT-DOWN A MISSILE! Anti-dote has been found?

"The SeaRAM is a drop in replacement for the Phalanx system. The RAM missile itself is a mach 2, second generation derivative of the Sidewinder and Stinger missiles. It features BOTH infrared and radar based target tracking, allowing for use against future low radar cross section (stealthy) anti-ship missiles."

"a 5 inch missile that utilizes SIDEWINDER technology for the warhead and rocket motor, and the STINGER missile's seeker."

AND SeaRAM REALLY HAS BEEN TESTED AND DOES WORK!!

"In 10 scenarios, real Anti-Ship Missiles and supersonic Vandal target missiles (Mach 2.5) were intercepted and destroyed under realistic conditions."

"With these test firings RAM demonstrated its unparalleled success against today's most challenging threats. Cumulatively to date more than 180 missiles have been fired against anti-ship missiles and other targets, achieving a success rate over 95%"

A proper dose of evasive maneuver, decoy, electronic-countermeasures, and SeaRAM can stop the Sunburn? The U.S. Navy sure hopes so! Until you know for sure, throw in a lot of damage control training for those crews of the aircraft carriers too!!
