Missiles ahead 2 generations beyond what americans have I doubt it.
The question is whether the us navy has anti-missile capabilities against these threats. Can they intercept a mach 2+ sea skimming missile when its launched from very near.
Historically US navy vessels have been hit by missiles. Wasn't the Stark hit by 2 exocets ? And those missiles are no where near the performance of the new russian antiship missiles.
