Re: How Do You Sink A Carrier?
Not very impressive. You're talking about Silkworm/Styx/Seersucker family of first generation antiship missiles. Very old stuff that can't be considered true low level sea skimmers. Shooting them down won't be called a feat.
During the Falklands War, the number of Exocets that got through British defenses was particularly disturbing.
Going back to the Russian carrier, I'm pretty sure, all their Cold War stuff were extensively tested, though I can't say that with the same confidence on their post-Cold War material.
