Yep, I'm calling BS on DUMBKA as usual here. Silkworm is a simply enormous missile and even if the warhead didn't detonate, at that range the fuel explosion would have vaporized the SAAR.

Would have blown the back half off the ship. The drone with 100# of HE is more believable.

Actually reviewing the article, the problem is DUMBKA is too stupid to know that the C-802 missle has nothing to do with a Silkworm...they claim it's in the "Silkworm" family when that is totally false. The C-802 is an Exocet/Harpoon knockoff.

Agreed. A silk worm would have done much, much more damage and probably sunk the Corvette outright.

Having said that, I am still waiting to see pics of the stricken vessel.
