USNI: Video: Tomahawk Strike Missile Punches Hole Through Moving Maritime Target
A January test of a Raytheon Tomahawk land attack missile (TLAM) against a moving target at sea could be a short-term answer to the U.S. Navy’s long-range anti-surface missile problem, USNI News understands.
The test – conducted off of San Nicolas Island, Calif. – demonstrated that a TLAM launched from a ship could be guided into a moving target at sea by a Boeing F/A-18E/F Super Hornet.
An unclassified video of the test, obtained by USNI News, shows the missile launch from guided missile destroyer USS Kidd (DDG-100), fly for an unspecified amount of time and punch a hole through a shipping container on a moving ship target and skip across the ocean.
WNU Editor: The best part of this video is at the 2:53 mark .... the two pigeons on top of the container got the biggest surprise in their lives when the tomahawk missile hit the target.
