It’s not the brute force, it’s the range and accuracy. I wonder how many global hotspots are within 200 miles of the ocean?

And how many of those hotspots will have land-based anti-ship missiles with a range > 200 miles, like the Chinese HY-4 variant of the Silkworm missile series?

The last time I was on a Navy ship was 20 years ago. They carried antimissile defense systems then, I’m wondering how effective antiship missiles are now.
