Fadavi was also quoted by the state broadcaster's Web site as saying that the warhead of this missile had the capacity to sink "all kinds of big warships".

At least that's what the Russian salesman told him!

He made the same claim back in the '60's. I believe it was the Styx (SS-N-2) missile that was promised to make aircraft carriers obsolete. By 1970, Styx was obsolete.
