The cheap Iranian cruise missiles appear to be really slow. Even our Tomahawks are slow compared to MANPADS.

I guess Mach 1.6 > whatever that Russian cruise missile was traveling at.

I don't think the rooskie cruise missiles (at least the one in the video) are supersonic.

Looks like subsonic cruise and maybe supersonic at final trajectory, depending on profile.

Most cruise missiles are not super sonic, for many reasons, one is tracking. I would bet as its probably damn close to a tomahawk in design its probably doing around 450 maybe as much as 500 mph.

That’s not a drone.

It’s a Soviet designed KH55/101

Oh, they have supersonic and hypersonic cruise missiles. That one wasn't. If what shot it down was an SA-14 Gremlin, it caught it fast. If it was an SA-7, that cruise missile was going much slower than I thought. I had to watch the video 3-4 times.

Yeah, I didn't hear the sonic boom. I thought it was going at like 600-700mph. 450-500 seemed slow. I used that pole as a reference. I've never seen a cruise missile shot down by a manpad before.

Oh.. I get that.  I was just speaking about what we are seeing in the video.

That looked like a Kent or a Kaliber.  Both cruise subsonic in the 500 to 550 mph range.  They can reach supersonic speeds in a terminal attack depending on their flight profile.

There were supposedly two manpads fired at it. The one seen launched on the video I think might have been the second and the first one is the one that hit it. Possibly why it seemed such a quick kill.

Ah, I stand corrected. And that would explain why it caught so fast. SA-18 > SA-14 > SA-7.

Another version of the video you can see an object streak past the cruise missile at the very beginning, appears to be a high speed missile missing.  The guy shooting past the telephone pole must be the second launch and responsible for the kill.

Air defense missiles, even man portable ones, are designed to catch up to something so they have to move very fast to do so. They also don't have to travel anywhere near the distance the cruise missile does.

The cruise missile is running a marathon. The shoulder fired missile is a sprinter.

I knew subsonic cruise missiles could be intercepted but this war is showing us how practically all air defense systems can routinely take them out. I am assuming this holds true for the Tomahawk.
