(Business Insider) Jake Epstein - U.S. Navy ships in the Red Sea have been intercepting deadly Houthi anti-ship ballistic missiles that no military had ever faced in combat. Cmdr. Jeremy Robertson, captain of the guided-missile destroyer USS Carney, said Monday that while the missiles are a challenge, "we have certain capabilities to be able to detect stuff like that." Some of the missiles are Iranian in origin, while others just contain parts from Tehran. Ballistic missiles, generally, fly at faster speeds than cruise missiles. Robertson said the complex process of detecting a threat, making sure it's real, sorting the trajectory, and engaging may last "anywhere from nine to 20 seconds." "Our systems are doing exactly what we've designed them to do," he said. Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Lisa Franchetti said the Carney "conducted 51 engagements in six months. The last time our Navy directly engaged the enemy to the degree that you have was way back in World War II." 2024-05-21 00:00:00Full Article
