He don't have wrong, the missile is deployed operationnal but we are not completely certain all the system isYou would doubt anything that you don't want to believe .... and believe anything (even false) that you want to believe ... no surprise here
Lacking knowledge of effectiveness and doubting effectiveness are two entirely different things. One is a statement of fact and the other is a statement of faith.

I have no idea what are you talking about
which weapon system that you know "completely certain" ? tell me
Anybody knows what type of warhead the ASBM is designed to carry? Seems to me it would make sense to carry some sort of flechette rounds, better hit probability and can probably knock out radars, VLS, and aircrafts. Wouldn't sink the ship that way, but if the radars, etc. are knocked out then they're just sitting ducks for YJ-12s and such.
I personally think AShBMs (DF-21D and DF-26) both would benefit from having different warhead types, with a cluster munition type round being one of them... the purpose of which would not be to sink a ship of course, but rather to increase the CEP of the terminal warhead and allow it to tear up a carrier's topside flight deck which is a very soft target with the island filled with radars and people, and the flight deck with arrestor gear, catapults, and the flight deck itself... where a hit can have the ability to mission kill or otherwise cripple a carrier's ability to operate.
We know at least that DF-16 has a cluster munition type warhead.

Do you remember the video game CGI where an ASBM releases a cluster of "ball bearings"?
At the time, I thought it very unlikely that a video game company would have come up with the concept.
