how effective will be an sea skiming anti-ship missile againts

>>33410089
Very.
You can close your thread now.

>>33410089
Depends on which AShM we're talking about.

Those multi-ton javelins of death the Soviet Union created specifically to kill Iowa Class BBs and Early Cold-War Carriers: One


A Harpoon or Sea Suka: way too many.


CMANO Simulation Anon tested this, modern western frigates can't kill an Iowa BB.

>>33410172
Lol no they all have torpedoes that can kill the shit out of iowas

>nope it's an AShM

>>33410542
That would require them getting close to the 16" guns Anon.

16" shells hurt.

>>33410564
>With a titanium nose cap so the CIWS can't hurt the warhead.

Those things are scary.

>>33410542

The torpedoes carried by modern frigates are only effective against submarines.

>>33410690
gaydar-guided, then?

>>33410690

Yeah cause they're specifically meant for ASW. Submarines however carry some nasty fucking torpedos that can fuck up a BB really bad

Has anyone got that gif of that AShM hitting that ship?

Thanks man

>>33410172
As a CMANO guy myself, I need to step in and say the damage system is in no way realistic enough to determine the outcome.

Hitting a shitty wooden mock-up does not prove anything.

If it comes down to sinking capital ships then you might as well go nuclear tipped

>>33410172
Those "multi-ton javelins" are not the solid chunks of metal that is needed to pierce 15 inches of steel
They have like 1-2 inch steel shells to allow them to pierce a small amount of armor.

They would splat against a battleships armor

>>33411163
Guess we'll have to not use shipping containers as armor huh?

>>33410699
underrated.

>>33410089
A missile(read, one) striking any heavily armored section probably wouldn't do anything more than superficial damage, but hitting it in the right place could probably knock her out of action for awhile. Anywhere else and it will still probably wreak some havoc, more so with more missiles which again increases probability of a mission kill. Another thing to consider is the size of the AShM, it would probably take more Harpoons than Moskits for example although again, it matters where. A single missile, probably not.

>>33411111
Love this gif but the target ship is not comparable to an Iowa-class BB in any way.

That being said, it's very much a what-if scenario that will never happen IRL. As far as modern systems go, like someone previously stated, sub-launched torpedoes would put her under very easily.

>They would splat against a battleships armor
You assume they would point those javelins at the armor belt and not the deck plate, or better yet, straight down the smoke stack.;

>>33411135

Other people actually read Warship1 one?

huh

>>33415247
Super sonic missiles cannot maneuver like that

>>33415358
Could they hit one of the turrets or the bridge super structure? Could a hit to one of those places mission kill the ship?

>Load Moskit with 120 kt warhead
>Bye bye Iowa.

As for non-nuclear options, you probably wont be able to sink it, but you would basically take it out of the fight. A lot of sensitive equipment simply cant be behind armor, so radar and rangefinders are all out, flooding the bow and stern would reduce range and speed, auxiliary guns can be taken out and cause heavy damage, plus fires.

It probably wont sink, but it would be out of combate anyways.

>>33415532
The turrets are heavily armored, but the super structure is mostly vulnerable, though the radars and rangefinders tend to be duplicated or more.
