Let's see. On the one hand we have the Shkval with a speed of about 230 miles per hour and a range of 7,500 yards. On the other hand we have the U.S Mk 48 ADCAP with a top speed of 55 knots and a range of 42,530 yards, or a max range of 54,685 yards if you limit the speed to 40 knots. Can anyone else do the math here?

With respect, I didn't specify the ranges (w/speeds) of the '48, simply because I felt it was one more advertisement as to our capabilities... No sense parading our "goods," if you get my drift... And, assuming that can't find a Janes' Fighting Ships anywhere...

FReegards,
