How good are the RIM-116 missiles as a countermeasure against these?

Look for Israel to take out the placements within a week of deployment!

The recent delivery of an advanced Russian-made anti-ship missile to Iran has Israeli defense officials concerned it will be transferred to Syria and Hizbullah and used against the Israel Navy in a future conflict. According to media reports, the P-800 Yakhont, the supersonic cruise missile can be launched from the coast and hit sea-borne targets up to 300 kilometers away. The missile carries a 200-kilogram warhead and flies a meter-and-a-half above sea level, making it extremely difficult to intercept.
The launch hardware and the ordnance will be knocked out in the preemptive strike phase.

You can defeat a ram jet by distributing Styrofoam peanuts into its path. It’s one of the problems with a ram jet.

(If you aren't part of the solution, there is good money to be made prolonging the problem.)
