Good points. THere is a great disconnect between the current state of the Russian military and the quality of russian military tech which many here aren't clear on.
Unless anti-missle systems that can targets objects 3 meters above sea level in a matter of seconds from detection are developed (presumably laser-based/space based), the Sunburn heralds the beginning of the end of the age of the carrier.
We haven't even tried out the E-bomb yet. What guidance system ??
