I need an advice.
If i have to sink a good enemy ship (like the Russian Kirov class Pyotr Velikiy battlecruiser) what is the best American missile to do the job? I mean, will you choose the agm-84k slamer-ata?
What about the AGM 154C-1?
What about other American missiles?

Thank you very much and sorry for my poor English.

It’s the jamming, the spoofing, diverting its attention by attacking from several angles by several means - and a lot of missiles. A Mk-48 Torpedo is usually pretty effective as well , once you sink the escorting Udaloys with a missile.

And the E even has its own radar just in case the target turns off the radar. Somebody on this forum once mentioned he uses only Harms in that role, and it works really well.

Status: offline 		the tomahawk IV maybe the best US ASM now, it can attack enemy ships from over 1000 km and change its course or turn to an alternative target in flight.
