See Tomahawk missile strike a ship

The cargo shipping industry needs to stand down, or else.

Now I know why my Chinese TV has scratches all over it. Wheres my Tupperware order ?

That's pretty impressive. They could fire it through an object on the ship without destroying their test ship.

The missile was not intended to explode. It was a test to see how effective it is at hitting moving ships and it’s ability to penetrate through enemy armour. Nothing was inside the mission to create the big boom

I always assumed that cruise missiles were designed to target cruise ships, but apparently you can just point them at anything!

Missile was moving so fast that it didn't know it was destroyed until it went all the way through lol

Who knew there would be so many military missile experts on Youtube giving their expert opinion for free?

nice to see pathetic comments from ignorant people. this missile worked like it should and yes that outcome was what they wanted. either watch less movies or understand the cost of a ship when it can be used again in consideration to it being completely destroyed then factor in the cost of 4 or 5 shipping containers that are probably free.

This is a test missile, it does not have all of the expensive explosives inside of it. The U.S already knows it can blow stuff up. They just want to test if it can successful track and hit moving targets. This was a cost effective way of doing it.

guys ur supposed to asplode B4 you poke thru the other side

A test of something the Navy had, abandoned and now realized they needed again. The rebirth of TASM...

Now i know why the boots i ordered had burn shoots on them. they were likely in that container shipment from China. dadgummit!

The missile knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't. By subtracting where it is from where it isn't, or where it isn't from where it is (whichever is greater), it obtains a difference, or deviation. The guidance subsystem uses deviations to generate corrective commands to drive the missile from a position where it is to a position where it isn't, and arriving at a position where it wasn't, it now is. Consequently, the position where it is, is now the position that it wasn't, and it follows that the position that it was, is now the position that it isn't. In the event that the position that it is in is not the position that it wasn't, the system has acquired a variation, the variation being the difference between where the missile is, and where it wasn't. If variation is considered to be a significant factor, it too may be corrected by the GEA. However, the missile must also know where it was.

Legend has it, the missile is still cruising at this day.

Lol they could almost damage one ship and shoot another in the process with just one missile.

Damn that was hella cool.

The kinetic energy is tremendous!

....MY ROOF IS READY FOR DEPLOYMENT

We now no longer fear the shipping container

it did not blow up because it did not hit the hull. just smashed through millimeter thick metal. so chill out every one
