US antiship missile depend very heavily on visual pattern recognition to discern foe, enemy or commercial ships.

You are one funny little armchair Admiral.

The United States Navy has made it official: The Kongsberg Naval Strike Missile (often called NSM) is its new choice for taking out enemy ships at distance. The decision, announced last week, means that both the Littoral Combat Ship and the Navy's new frigate will pack a powerful, anti-ship punch.

The NSM uses infrared guidance to home in on its target, has a range of over 100 nautical miles, and packs a 265-pound warhead. The system can not only be fired from surface ships. With a total weight of 770 pounds, it's light enough to be carried by the Navy's MH-60R Seahawk helicopters.

Anger is an acid that can do more harm to the vessel in which it is stored than to anything on which it is poured. Mark Twain
