Tom Clancy once said (words to the effect of) the only things the Soviet
Union made well were vodka and RPGs.

As he spoke, Clancy must have forgotten about the AK-47, a wide spectrum of
aircraft, anti-aircraft weapons, ballistic missiles, tanks, and many naval
weapons, not the least of which is the "Sunburn" missile and its latest
derivatives.....an advancement that the US Navy has yet to figure out how to
counter.

And the combat record of the Sunburn is???? The USN has no need nor
use for such a weapon.
And you have no Idea what the USN can or cannot counter.
