Because they had all sorts of assets in the area where it was fired from, conducting Aegis combat coordination drills no less. So if twenty ships and several billion dollars in combat technology can't track or stop a couple of rag heads from firing a SAM from a fishing boat, then we should just shut down the Navy altogether and call it a day.

Which 20 ships were they?

They were headed to a military exercise area designated W-105. Look it up, it's old news. As to the exact names of the ships and subs in that classified operation, I'll get back to you on that perfectly reasonable question that anyone in the Navy would know would be instantly available on the internet, just as soon as the SECNAV emails me the info to my bathroom closet server.
