you are joking, right?
you fire one anti-ship missile and you expect the AEGIS system to find it difficult?
bloody hell, AEGIS is an anti-saturation system. you have to fire more missiles at the same time at it then it can counter. if you fire just one missile, the missile is being shot down moments after it is detected. whatever the missile type.

Well, AEGIS *could* be saturated since it uses 2 to 4 SPG-62 directors for terminal phase guidance. But for Tacticos/APAR/SMART-L, with the capability to guide 16 missiles in terminal phase, is a different story.

Aegis does not require illuminators for SM2 guidance, they are just preferred for various reasons.

The DDG-51s only have three illuminators, correct? Most ships of this capability typically ship four like the Ticos. This is consistent with the Korean and Japanese SPY-1 ships and the Spanish (and presumably Australian) SPY-1 ships will only ship two.

There's an impressive amount of stupid here and there, but the usual knowledgable subjects seem to be taking care of it.

I got a good laugh, though!

If the RoE's aren't strict, that Su-24 would become SM-2/ESSM bait

If the destroyer wanted to shoot down those two SU-24. then the destroyer would have done it. The reason the destroyer didn't fire is because they didn't want to start WW3.
