to reply in the tone as you
did you even READ the first post? or just launch into your full of fail uneducated ex-covict cause im from failand of australia response?
as i linked in the FIRST POST mr fail is that many countries can produce BALLISTIC warheads that can MANEUVER , russia have them , the usa have them ,
as i linked from the pershing 2 - but reading comprehension is just fail for you.
*sigh* what an amazing ability to just ignore whats been posted on pages 1 >4 ; the tech is available and just because the usa doesn`t persue it
doesn`t mean its to be dismissed out of hand

Let me ask you something,
Is this entire thread not about an anti-ship missile?
I'm not trying to say that a well-orchestrated assault can't cause significant damage to a carrier, I'm trying to say that it's going to take a
lot more than a single torpedo, anti-ship missile, and what-not to sink a carrier.
If you haven't noticed, some members in this thread seem to be convinced that all it takes is one.

Please explain, for I see a sea skimming 200kilo-tone nuke doing it just fine,

Reminder:
The title of this thread is: Forget Sunburn - Enter The New Carrier Killer
Please remain on topic, and feel free to start a new thread in the appropriate forum if you feel there is a new subject that needs to be discussed so
that this one can run its course.
Carry on and thanks.

Ok, if you can get a 200 kiloton nuclear warhead into the missile in-question and at the same time get that missile to make it through the many
layered defenses of a CBG, then I'll give it up to you, the carrier is sinkable...

Regardless, the 'nuke' argument is both an easy way out, and an uneducated response. To be more specific:
If you nuke a carrier group, you've suddenly escalated the level of the game to 'Armageddon'. A nuclear device in that case should be considered
more of a game-changer, than of a tool to remove the battle-group. What such a thing would mean is not so much that a carrier sank, but that the
country whom launched the missile will shortly thereafter be radioactive, whether a controlled response or all-out.
And really, that's the reason countries develop Sunburn, Brahmos..
So they don't have to use nukes.
