Phalanx won't stop deep torpedos, as far as I know.

Yeah but the Phalanx will make splinters outta the Iranian Super Attack
Boats.

The Iranian underwater missle is a Hoax. They were just poppin off some
chemical propellant rockets that were becoming unstable.

You did not see the film of the 27 duds, and the 3 pre ignitions.

No, did you?

The Kursk was testing rocket torpedos when it sank. The Idea of fast
rocket torps is not really novel anymore. As is neither the idea that
a carrier is prone to a ballistic missile attack, even with a concrete
payload, phalanx or no.

The wing in ground effect skimmer is at the toy stage now. If they
think it's a big advance, perhaps they (or we) have missed something,
like remote piloting, or something?

Fear not, big heads are pressed together over this.

Pride goeth before the fall, as I recall.

Humility is the best weapon. The best defense is to give no offence
amongst friends. (At least until the gullible *******s have their backs
turned, eh?)

Who's trustworthy?

The 'idea' of fast 'rocket' torpedoes isn't new but getting one to work reliably
certainly is. Also, the idea that a fast moving inert torpedo, or any but the
biggest torpedoes, is likely to seriously damage a bird farm is preposterous.
They carry nukes and are armored accordingly.
