“DO YOU NEED TO SEE THE HOUTHIS HIT MORE CONTAINER SHIPS WITH ASBMs TO BELIEVE THE PLA ROCKET FORCE CAN HIT A MOVING TARGET AT SEA???”

The US navy can't even survive a saturated attack by hypersonic ASBMs, and you want them intercept for Taiwan😂

As for tracking targets, here's our commercial grade satellite:

Where did the Houthis get their ASBMs? More importantly, who taught them how to use it and why? None other than...

The PLARF units watching as all the ASBMs start falling from the sky after the USN pulls out a doohickey from the Dark INP (Innovative Naval Prototypes) line titled 'Proj Mega Superstar' and straps it to a Burke.

***UPDATE***

Ships are being hit by ASBMs, anti-ship missiles and drones like Shahed (OWA-UAVs).

This appears to be the latter. These are a new threat in maritime arena, see hisutton.com/Iran-Shahed-Dr…

A Liaoning carrier battle group will be able to annihilate the major combatants of the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force.

In the Western Pacific against the US, they will act as support for the main strike capabilities of ASBMs and CATOBAR carriers like Fujian and Type-076

If US shootdown claims are true, it's likely the 'anti-ship ballistic missiles' are of the Falegh-1 type.

This is a small, cheap missile that would be easier to produce in larger quantities and use in the range bracket claimed by US.

Less sophisticated than other Houthi ASBMs.

Weird people have orgasmic excitement over Huthi UxVs that have dome next to nothing other than be slaughtered, but seem utterly uninterested in Mach 5 ASBMs that genuInely are a warfare first, and ASCMs which almost hit US warship, simply because latter two aren’t “drones”

Hamlet has been skeptical of the hype around 'game changing' ASBMs vs warships.

But as highlighted before zero doubt of the 'effects' Houthis have achieved with their ad hoc mish-mash arsenal vs civilian maritime traffic.

Important to not conflate the two analytically

INS Vishakapatnam (D66) is on scene.

Houthis have a variety of anti-ship ballistic missiles (ASBMs), thanks to Iran.

The two heaviest ASBMs in their arsenal are the 450 km-range Asef, which is a rebranded Iranian Fateh 313 missile, and the 500 km-range Tankil, which looks…
