But if they can't aim it, it means nothing. They say it can evade

Highly unlikely.
Extremely likely, actually - Torpedoes rarely get picked up by radar :-)
Incorrect, since we use airborne radar to detect torpedos (among other
technologies, such as sonar) and can detect supercavitating missiles. You
did note that Iran bragged about the radar-evading material they've coated
this thing with, didn't you?
I suspect you are confusing your weapons. I've seen claims of radar
invisibility in relation to the ground-effect craft, but not the
supercavitating missile. The GE craft did have that slab-sided "stealth"
look about it. If the water craft are invisible to radar as claimed, they
would still have to get within a few km of a ship to be effective. There
might be a chance that, combined, the two weapons could get a hit in, before
a ship could get out of the way or deploy countermeasures.
In sh'allah, we will never know.
