That was pretty cool. I didn't know much about the combat record of Harpoons and Styxs in the Iran-Iraq war, or that a BB had shot up boats in '91.

Too bad I wasn't able to get exact figures on the missile attacks but it boiled down to something like 1/4 hits for the Harpoon (1/2 if you count the near hit in the second battle) and 1/10+ hits for the Styx discounting the non critical hit on the Paykin. But I think the only reason the Styx scored a critical hit was that the Iranian PTG in this battle ran out of ammo.

Someone rolled a 20.
