Military Ships (was Your Typical Beneteau!)

Most antiship missiles today will not penetrate there thick hide. They don't have to penetrate the hull to disable the ship. And can you explain how that might work? The superstructure is still vulnerable. That's where all the sensors, antenna, and weapons are located. Take out the electronics and the ship is combat ineffective. Dead wrong: 1. The superstructure is not vulnerable, it is 12 inches thick. 2. They carry spar and emergency antennas. 3. All they need is GPS and a data link with an AWACS to take out ANYTHING in range. |
