Why naval forces fear Russia's deadly supersonic anti-ship missile
The Russian P-800 Oniks is one of the deadliest anti-ship missiles.
Launched from land or sea it possesses a 370-mile over-the-horizon firing range with supersonic speed in all phases of flight, along with resistance to electronic countermeasures to avoid naval defensive systems.
The P-800 Oniks warhead can be conventional or nuclear - a conventional warhead can inflict devastating damage making it a so-called "carrier killer" and has the NATO codename SS-N-26 Strobile.
