Can Anti Ship Ballistic Missiles reliably hit naval warships?

You need to recheck Forum Rules. I can delete propaganda / posts of no value if they are repeatedly posted and emphasized in the face of provided evidence.

If it takes this step to push people to improve their posting standards, so be it.

SM-3 is designed to intercept ballistic missiles and the sort in midcourse phase while SM-6 is designed to intercept ballistic missiles and the sort in terminal phase. Both are technically validated to defeat incredibly fast projectiles, maneuvering or not. SM-3 has ASAT capability as well.

This level of defensive capability is rare on ships. SM-3 is exported to only two countries while SM-6 is exported to only one.
What I meant was the SM3 / 6 are not going to target maneuvering anti ship missiles moving at mach 10, because I believe no such missiles capable of hitting a ship at open sea are actually operational outside the internet.
The danish navy is looking at acquiring SM-6 for the AAW Iver Huitfeldt class, after a study of the sensor and management system. I wouldnt be surprised if its part of the new defence agreement starting late 2023.

Murica known China DF21D was able to hit a moving shit way way back in 2016.

The test was made by China unannounced as it was not in China way to brag and boast the way Murica like to do so.

But China knew Murica was keeping track via satellite. And when Yuanwang No 4 disappeared from Satellite in middle of the sea and Murica making frantic trackings, China and Russia knew that Murica knew. Russia even laughed and declared then that Murica taught a lesson.


That DF21D in mid 2016 under Beitou 2 hit a moving boat 152 meters long and 20.6 meters wide and 12,700 tons , a fraction of a carrier size, making it like a sniper hit on the apricot or medulla oblangata of a target.

CNOOC Yuanwang No. 4 survey ship is the most legendary in all Yuanwang series ships, and can also be regarded as a "legend" in Chinese ships. Before becoming Yuanwang No. 4, the ship was the first 10,000-ton ocean-going scientific research vessel designed and manufactured by China---Xiangyanghong No. 10, built by the famous Jiangnan Shipyard. It was launched in 1979 and was built to go to Antarctica. In 1988, he won the National Grand Prize---the National Science and Technology Progress Special Award. In 1998, Xiangyanghong No. 10 was transformed into Yuanwang No. 4 space oceanic survey and control vessel, and continued to contribute to scientific research in different fields of the country.

However, in August 2007, Yuanwang No. 4 suffered an accident at the Jiangyin base. It was hit by a civilian ship and caught fire. After testing, it was found that the main structure was seriously damaged, and it was withdrawn from the sea monitoring and control mission. Yuanwang No. 4 was transformed into the test No. 1 target ship. During a sea test in late June 2016, the warhead of the Dongfeng-21D anti-ship ballistic missile hit the deck of the moving No. 1 target ship and sank into the seabed during the towing process. This was the last mission of the ship from Xiangyanghong 10 to Yuanwang No. 4, and then to the No. 1 target ship. It completed the mission of the whole life in the final.
