How can you expect to be respected in the world if you don't know about the terminal ballistics of frequency hopping inverse modular axial interference field emitters and their relation to a electromagnetic focus compensator matrix.

I'm on a horse.

Furthermore, I think Carthage must be destroyed.

Well the article said it was accurate up to 900 miles. Keep the carrier at 901 miles from the launch site.

If its the CG and DDGs jamming those get taken out and the next wave of Dong Thongs kills the carrier.

Then we simply tow smaller deployable arrays behind the escorts on the outside of the formation! We could put one behind the carrier, too. Jeez, do I have to think of everything?

Granted, we'd lose effective radiated power to some degree with that setup, and the smaller engines* on the escorts would cost us wattage, but it should still be enough to light up the Ding Dong's scope (which I presume would have a comparitively small power supply, being as how it's on a missile and all).

*I thought we had CGNs, at least. Did something happen to those?

Sea Combat.The Dong Feng 21A and launcher vehicle are displayed at the Beijing Military Museum. China is reportedly working on developing the world's first antiship ballistic missile based on a similar design.

Not an all powerful weapon, but still an interesting approach to the problem of circumnavigating CVBG defences.

Even if the ASBM is equipped with the smallest warhead, 100Kt will do more than screw up a flight deck.

Remember, what 15 Kt did to Hiroshima.

This is something to be concerned with. But like any other weapon system, it can be mitigated... given time, money, and focus.

Still... Home on Jamming.

Just adjust forward of where the jamming is coming from if its less powerful than normal.

Also I just realized that the warhead needs to be guided by radar but the bomblets it drops do not. They could be designed to slow down and maneuver with air vanes and by guided by IR. The US has a weapon like that for taking out armor.

All the CGNs were broken up for scrap in the late 90s early 00s.

Made in China? I am the proud owner of a Fenix P3D. Marvellous piece of equipment, ultrabright, and of highest manufacturing quality - beats most competing models in its class easily and hands down. But costs just a fraction of comparing items from western production. I love it!
