it was a chinese silk missile that struck the Israel ship. they do a tremendous amount of a damage as they hold a large war head.

This is precisely the type of attack our Navy will face if we get into it with Iran in the Gulf. Reports are we think we can kill them before they hit our ships.

Edit: According to the JPost, the IDF is now calling it an "Iranian-made missile", so it's likely a copy of Chinese Silkworm. The previous report that it was a UAV seemed rather odd.
