Is it really that easy to intercept and shoot down missiles being fired from warships? I strongly doubt it. What's the typical shoot down rate with that gear? Doubt it's anywhere near 100%. And the Americans have lots of missiles they can fire rom those ships. |
Depends... I'd say for smth like 57E6 (Pantsir intercept missile) there're 0,5 chances to hit the target similar to your typical, most widespread, unmaneuverable subsonic multirole missile akin to BGM-109, Kh-55, and I'm being very modest here (it's usually 2 missiles per target anyway one after another). In other words those Pantsirs Syria have could intercept the wave of Tomahawks twice as bigger than was launched against Libya on the first week, i.e. 200 of them > reload > repeat.
