Silly Kapitain...
Example from yesterday, I was fighting a PLAN taskforce of 1 Sovermenny DDG and four other warships (one had SAMs) plus 6 LSTs. Out of 12 TASMs 2 got past their air defenses sinking two LSTs. I then fired four Harpoons, all four made it through sinking a Sovermenny and an LST. Compared to the TASM the Harpoon is much stealthier, warhead doesn’t matter if the missile gets shot down.
