Reply #16: Iran doesnt have too many sunburns..BUT... [View All]

but a launch of C-801 and C-802 cruise missiles, along with the sunburns could very likely swamp the point defense of a ship. If one sees 1000 launches, one would have maybe 2 minutes before the sunburns hit. Fighters in the air would have about 45 seconds to lock and fire all missiles, then sea based Harpoons would have to launched, then the phalynx gun has about 30 seconds to get radar lock and fire. check my journals for some good info & links

i wouldn't say 1/2 the navy, but ships can be sunk.......
