The Russians have been working on this sort of cooperative missile volley strike for quite a while I believe.

Good while ago I read about the SS-N-22 Sunburn being able to attack in a group with most down low to avoid interception, with one flying up high for targeting info. The high bird would update the low ones. If it got shot down, one of the low ones would move up and take it's place.

Be interesting to know just how well that worked and how often they did live fire testing to prove it out. Sounded like one helluva programming accomplishment at the time, so I wondered.

Can the Ruskies build a sub that will survive long enough to launch?

Will they be allowed to fire if the hatch is closed?

"Russian supersonic missiles behave like wolves"

So they destroy elk, deer and other ungulate herds in the Northern Rockies? They wipe out entire flocks of sheep in a single night? They have Northeastern eco-nut groups like the Defenders of Wildlife sticking up for them?

Just being a smarta**...sorry, couldn't help it.

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

The next full scale naval conflict is going to be a bloody mess.

"armed with Onyx supersonic cruise missiles,"

There is a joke in there somewhere but I cannot think right now because I am laughing!

No real defense for that, right?

You mean like, they pee on trees and howl at the Moon?

>> Russian supersonic missiles behave like wolves

So they launch a pack at a time... with a dominant leader missile?
