Though I don't think it's as much as an ultimate CVBG-killing weapon as they make it out to be. It is completely dependent on satellites for guidance, and it's bound to be less reliable than usual ASMs at least at this point. There are also ways to shoot down a ballistic missile from a ship nowadays, so a CVBG is not completely defenceless against it.
